Floral Swirls and Rosie Doodles Sampler Thank You Card

For my first sample using the A4 sampler of the Floral Swirls and Rosie Doodles stamps from Clarity Crafts, I worked on a background that I had created at the 2025 summer retreats.  This dictated the colours that I chose.
Trim a background made at the 2025 Clarity summer retreat to 5” x 4.5” and add the Sending You Love image from the Floral Swirls and Rosie Doodles A4 sampler set in Versamark ink and heat emboss with Platinum superfine embossing powder.
Trim a mask blank to 2” x 2” and mask up the image.
Add the Thank you stamp from the same set in a like manner, removing the mask before heating.
Add colour to the frames using Polychromo #149 (Winter) and to the flowers using #111 (Spring).
Add a dropped shadow to both using #271 and #273 (Essential).
Mat onto a piece of Indian Summer Companion paper and trim leaving a very narrow border, then onto a piece of Antarctica companion paper leaving a slightly wider border.
Add to the front of a 6” x 6” white card blank.
To finish, add a piece of coordinating ribbon along the spine of the card and neaten on the inside.
