Hello and welcome to another wonderful ESAD hop.
You are currently here with me Kim Oliver- KOCreations Cards. You have arrived from Rachel's gorgeous project post If you have just started the hop here, don't stress 😉 I have a button further down for you to continue moving through to the next lovely designer in the hop Sharon Dalton.

We are focusing our creative energies today on Sale-A-Bration products for 2018.

I have chosen to use the Second Release Sale-A-Bration items called Blossoming Basket Bundle and Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Series Paper.

I simply adore the NEW Springtime Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP). The touch of gold on this paper really adds a richness to your projects.

I paired the gorgeous DSP with the new Blossoming Basket bundle.

This bundle comprises of a stamp set and a Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (TIEF)

I have used both for my card. 

Angled View

I coloured the basket of flowers using the Stampin' Blends which are also available in the Occasions catalogue on pages 30 and 31. Once coloured I fussy cut the image before mounting it over the embossed whisper white card stock.

I finished my card by adding some twine and mini sequins trim in black and a FREE item called Shimmer Ribbon in Basic Grey.

All FREE available from the Sale-A-Bration Catalogue until the 31st March 2018

For my card I used a Basic Black card base with an embossed layer of Thick Whisper White. 

I cut my circle from the embossed layer before I embossed. It is important to do it before you emboss with the folder, otherwise you will lose the gorgeous texture you have just created.

The embossed layer has added depth by adding dimensionals underneath to lift it up and away from the Basket image.

The black framing the circle has been cut using the largest layering circle and then using my paper snips, I cut around the outside edge of the negative following the mark left by the die.

I stamped the basket onto a scrap piece of whisper white and then coloured it using the Stampin' Blends that are available now in the Occasions catalogue on pages 30 and 31.

The Stampin' Blends colours that I used are as follows:

• Old Olive Light and Dark combo (144597)
• Pink Pirouette Light and Dark combo (144604)
• Crumb Cake Light and Dark combo (144601
• Cherry Cobbler Light (144576)
• Calypso Coral Light (144042)
• Daffodil Delight Light (144586)
• Bermuda Bay Light (144580)
• Ivory (144606)
• Colour Lifter 144608)

Once finished I stamped the butterflies and repeated the process of colouring and fussy cutting. I also added clear Wink of Stella to the butterflies, just to make them shimmer and shine in the light.
The pretty little butterflies are held in place with glue dots.

I finished my card by grouping some pretty rhinestones down the left side of the card, this helped bring some balance and symmetry back.  

I do hope you have enjoyed this project today.
