Beautiful die-cuts

Since I discovered the technique of smooshing, it has become a technique that I use again and again!
Here I incorporated a few Distress Inks with the Inka Gold paste for this background. I diecut the flowers from Concord and 9th from the background and from a piece of white card spritzed with Crafter's Companion Iridescent sparkle spray. I then inset one into the other ( and some of the bits were very fiddly I can tell you!)
The love sentiment is from Winnie and Walter. It's a sentiment that I use SO often on my cards!
