Tempting Turquoise with White Flowers

I wanted to create some white flowers so they would really pop off the DSP.  I had already played with the Dotted Scallop Border Punch and had the Tempting Turquoise piece with the Cross Stitching already done, so I knew I had to pop my flower off this color.
Tmptng Trqse w White FlowersI created my Polka Dot Embossed Border with the Border Embossing Folders, not an SU item.

My flowers layers, starting from the bottom up... Nestibilities Scallop Circle,  2 3/8 Scallop Circle Punch, 2 large Flowers from the Blossom Party Die, then the larger daisy and on top of that one, the smaller Daisy from the Blossom Party Die.  I popped 3 of the layers with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I gently coaxed the flower petals to bend and stand apart from each other.

Here’s the close up of the new Dotted Scallop Border Punch with some Cross Stitching.  I just love this border punch.  Its so much fun.
The flowers from the inside of the card are from the Boho Blossoms and Flower Trio Punches.  I added a small Tempting Turquoise Brad in the center of each one.   The 3 White Candy Dots are from my stash.  I will write my sentiment with my White Signo Gel Pen (105021).
