Downton Abbey Style

Hello Crafters !
Hope you are well and enjoying the sunshine ♥

Today's project is an elegant Tri Fold Card with all the lush of  Downton Abbey, Yeah !

I made my card by using the amazing printed Centura Pearl "Above the stairs". I layered the panels with papers from the Crafter's Inspiration Magazine Issue 11. The die cuts for the corners are from Opulent Corners Die.  For the romantic flowers I die cut various layers in normal white paper ( paper from your printer is OK) from the Floral duo die. I chose one of the wonderful sentiments from the Downton Abbey Luxury Cardmaking Kit for my central piece. Finally I added the Regency Borders die cuts to make half frame around my sentiment.

See the template at the end of the post !
