I found the box with my embossing folders, so I have texture rather than patterned paper. This is Darice Crinkle. The sentiment (Die-versions Curly Word Hello) was already cut in another box. The baker's twine and adhesive dots are from my stash. I had a gift card, so I just got the flower... Sunny Stamps Hawaiian Hibiscus stamp and die set stamped using Hampton Arts shades of pink. I LOVE IT!! I love hibiscus and have been wanting a stamp like this for awhile, and I really like this one because it was not too hard to get right. I have a couple of other layering stamps that are almost impossible to layer correctly. :/
I'm not sure how the card looks on your device because while it looks great on my iPhone, it looks dull on my laptop. I can assure you it is soooo pretty IRL!!!
Side note... several years ago, I had a hibiscus plant that was absolutely gorgeous! My cats didn't even try to eat it like they had all other plants. I enjoyed it until one day, one of them knocked it over and it broke. I mean it broke! Completely sheered off at the root! Grrrrr! So now I just create my own. :)
Here'e our sketch... can't wait to see how you all interpret this one!!

Beautiful card, Debbie! I adore an embossed white background, and your flower is gorgeous. I have a huge hibiscus tree that's this same colour. I've had it for over 30 years so I would be crushed if that happened!
Debbie - your card is GORGEOUS! I always love hibiscus flowers, but your embossed background REALLY set it off!!! I have that same folder and all I ever thought of was crinkled leather or cracked ice - you've widened my scope of possibilities! Thank you!!! -Donna

I thought the same thing Debbie as you said when I saw your card!! “Great minds think alike!” Haha! I love yours!!
So beautiful! So glad you found your embossing folders, too. That's just one more item to get you settled into your new home.
