Happy Birthday Donna

I made a  fun fold card the other day and thought the layout used might be nice for a basic card with an added flower and I think it is, what do you think?

Materials required for this card are:

Card stock: *perennial essence vellum, petal pink, very vanilla

DSP:perennial essence

Dies: layering circles (2), stitched shapes (1)

Embossing powders: clear

Ink: craft white, blackberry bliss

Ribbon: *ombre calypso coral 

Stamp sets: by the dock, floral essence, peaceful moments

Accessories: *white perfect accents

Once I'd stamped the flower petals and leaf I heat embossed using clear embossing powder, to make sure the ink didn't smudge.

* = retired

Floral Essence meets Well Said

Hi Folks welcome to my happy place, hope you're having a great day!

I will be posting twice today as there are to birthdays.

Happy Birthday Heather x

This is a mixture of old and current products, hope you like it.

The card base is 21 x 14.85 scored at 10.5, the first layer is 10 x 14.3, second layer (dsp) is 3.5 x 14.3.

Colours are daffodil delight, early espresso, old olive and whisper white.

(cs) = card stock, (dsp) = designer series paper, (r) - retired, (ss) = stamp set

All measurements are in centimetres.

• Starting with the first layer of (cs) and the floral essence (ss), stamp the sentiment in early espresso then lightly spritz with daffodil delight.
• Emboss this layer using the subtle (ef), and adhere the second layer (r) gingham gala (dsp) using liquid glue.
• Add the ribbon across the top of the (r) gingham gala (dsp). For this I used (r) taffeta and (r) grosgrain.
• Attach to the card base using dimensional pads and put to one side for now.
• Stamp 2 of the leaves from the floral essence (ss) using old olive and cut using the co-ordinating leaf punch.
• Stamp 2, of the 3 petal stamp on perennial essence velum using daffodil delight allow to dry for a few minutes then cut using the co-ordinating perennial flower punch, layer these together using glue dots.
• Position the flower and leaves where you want them and stick down using glue dots (vellum sticks easier with glue dots).
• Die cut the happy using the well written dies, adhere using liquid glue of adhesive sheet.
• stamp the birthday from the well said (ss) and cut using the classic label punch, then attach using dimensional pads.
• Add a (r) iced rhinestone to the centre of the flower.

Thank you for dropping by.

Will be back again soon with more cards
