Dahlia Days meets Pansy Patch

   Thank you for joining me today!

Happy Birthday Ruth


I really enjoyed making this card, I die cut the big die, then used it as an overlay to position the blending behind it for each of the flowers. The rest was just stamping, die cutting and positioning. Easy as pie. There was a little ink smudging on the overlay but a strategically placed rhinestone and the sentiment soon took care of that. Remember there are never any mistakes in stamping only embellishment opportunities.

Materials required for this card are:

Card Stock: basic white thick and normal
Dies: detailed dahlias
Ink: fresh freesia, pale papaya, polished pink, soft succulent
Stamp Sets: dahlia days, pansy patch
Accessories: in color jewels, open weave ribbon, stampin' blends

Hope you liked today's card. If you would like more information on how to make it, please don't hesitate to contact me, I'd love to hear from you.
