Penny Black - Refresh

Hi everyone.  Today's card uses one of the dies from the latest release at Penny Black, called Refresh (51-817).

I absolutely adore these lovely flowers in three different sizes.  I die-cut them from mixed media paper and sponged with Distress Inks (Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade, Carved Pumpkin).  I mounted them over top of a die-cut and embossed background panel (Semi-Circle Stackers 51-706), popping up the panel with foam for added dimension.  To finish this CAS design, I stamped the sentiment (Super Day 31-044) in Gathered Twigs Distress Ink and used my white Posca pen to add small dots to the flower centers.
