Here is my card,
I used the Sahara Sand A4 Cardstock as my base card followed by layering ( embossed Sahara Sand Cardstock, Whisper White and another layer of Whisper White. I stamped the leaves from the Painted Poppies stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and Fuzzy cut it, then stamp the co-ordinating ink on top of each leaves.
I love the leaves from the below picture.
I used the colours Night of Navy, Mint Macaron and Rich Razzleberry to sponge the Cardstock, I don't want to see the perfect blending, I want the ink to look like a patch work on the card, next I splashed some water drops on the top, again I sponged to get the dark shade, it will look like a irregular patch work on the background.

Then I splashed again with some Frost white on the background and attached all the die cut leaves to it using Stampin' Dimensionals, next I used the linen thread to make 3 turns around the card and made a bow and again added White Polkadot ribbon which I coloured it slightly black using Sharpie and added on top as shown in the photo using glue dots.
I stamped the sentiment in Sahara Sand Cardstock using Versamark Ink pad , Stampin' White Emboss Powder and used heat tool to melt the powder, Fuzzy cut it using paper snips and attached on top using stampin' dimensionals.
I decorated inside of the card using the layers Night of Navy , Whisper White Cardstock with some scrap piece of Night of Navy.
