Love how you can take a card and use it for inspiration and flip it around to become your own work. I used Brian King's card called Country-Home. I just love this new set everyone needs HAPPY MAIL!

Fold the 5 1/2 x 11 piece of Rococo Rose in half.

For the inside- 5 1/4 x 4 white piece-
Use a Blending Brush and Soft Sea Foam ink to add a little color to a bottom corner.

Use Seaside Spray and stamped off Night of Navy to create the flower and Soft Sea Foam and stamped off Old Olive to do the flowers.

Add a Seaside Spray Pearl.

Use Tasteful Labels to cut the White Label and the Rococo Rose Lable.

Stamp the "Happy" on the white label by stamping in first Seaside Spray and then offsetting just a hair and stamping in Night of Navy.

Stamp "mail" in Night of Navy on Rose label

Stamp the flower with Rococo Rose, center with Night of Navy, add a Seaside Pearl- cut out

Stamp the leaf with Soft Sea Foam and Old Olive, cut out.

Layer onto the 5 x 3 3/4 piece of Night of Navy
the 2 pieces of DSP 3 5 /8 x 2 1/4 and 3 5/8 x 3.

I did use a Blending Brush with Rococo Rose ink to the flower DSP the background was white but I wanted it light pink so the label would stand out more.

place the Night of Navy piece onto the card with dimensionals.

Place the Navy tread onto the back of the white label with dimensionals and add to the card.

The flower goes on with 2 dimensionals on the top petals. The bottom 2 are loose over the label.

The leaf and the "MAIL" label are on the card with Stampin' Seal.
