My first three cards features the NEW Floral Delight stamp set illustrated by Arjita Singh. This set does have a coordinating die set available for purchase. Mine didn't arrive in time but I show that with the large size it can be stamped directly onto the card panel. For those that don't like to color, I wanted to share that you can still create with big florals.

The panel was trimmed to 3 7/8" x 5 1/2" and attached to a piece of black card stock with only 1/8" peeking out over the piece of black and white stripped pattern paper (GKD Petite Patterns 6x6 - Retired). The sentiment was heat embossed on a black strip and popped up for added dimension. For embellishment I added black twine and black enamel dots.
