You should have arrived from Maggi's Blog.  if not you will want to start at the beginning, The Cheery Lynn Designs Blog so you don't miss any of the designers posts for today.

For my card today I chose to use Cheery Lynns Beautiful dies along with the New IOE folder and plate. LOVE using these, as it was fun creating the "Thank You so much " border, and then the "Thank You" in the center of my card.

I wanted you to be able to see it really well , so I chose to use this shimmer cardstock, and then emboss the sentiment and highlight using some silver Brilliance ink.

Layer 1 - Card Base 5 1/2" x 5 1/4" light grey
Layer 2- 5 1/4" x 5 1/4" dark grey card stock, then 5" x 5" design paper from
Layer 3 is Cheery Lynns Royal Scandinavian Doily , then cut in half on the diagonal. Next I cut my dark grey layer, then my shimmer layer that I used the IOE Thank you Wishes Folder and IOE
Square Plate

Layer 4-Next for the embossed sentiment area I embossed the Thank you , then cut out using the oval dies. Next for the dark grey I chose to use Cheery Lynns Fancy frame called Mirror CABD-74

Layer 5- Flowers and these were cut using the Cheery Lynn Tea Rose Small die, and some light pink dp. Next I chose to do the Glass Flower Technique and distress the edges of each petal with 2 different red inks. Lastly I added some Really Reasonable Ribbon Pearls to the centers(8mm and 10mm)
