Mixed Bunch Bonus Card - friend to friend

This card has so much dimension.  Love the textured mat of Pool Party on the Pool Party base.  The striped purple flower is created using two (2) punched blossoms.  I made 1 cut, then began folding each blossom petal like a fan, then attached the 2 folded blossoms using mini glue does.  I placed a Pool Party blossom punch behind the purple flower, then added a purple shadow by cutting each of the purple shadow petals and attaching them individually behind the Pool Party base.  The button is dressed with White Baker's Twine and popped in place with a mini glue dot.

The Pear Pizzazz banner was punched using a square punch to get the perfect points.

and a closer look at the folded flower.  My colors got a little distorted zooming in so close.  The picture above is accurate.

The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.
