Vibrant Birthday
I needed to make a birthday card for a friend recently and thought I would share it with you. I punched a narrow strip of Basic Black card using the Decorative Ribbon Border Punch and attached it behind one edge of a piece of Garden Impressions 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. I attached the designer series paper to Whisper White card which is embossed using the Country Floral Dynamic Embossing Folder. The whole panel is attached to scored and folded Basic Black card. I cut an oval from Whisper White card using the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies and stamped “‘happy birthday” from the Best Birds stamp set using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. 
I stamped the vase outline from the Vibrant Vases stamp set onto Whisper White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and stamped the fill image over the top using Melon Mambo ink which I had stamped off once. I punched out the vase using the Vases Builder Punch and attached it to the stamped oval. I stamped the flower outline image onto scrap Whisper White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I stamped the flower fill image using Melon Mambo ink and the leaf fill image using Shaded Spruce ink. 
I cut out the flower image and attached it to the oval over the top of the vase using Mini Dimensionals. I cut a scalloped oval from Basic Black card using the Layering Ovals Framelits and attached the stamped oval. The stamped panel is attached to the card front using dimensionals.
To decorate the inside of the card, I punched a narrow strip of Basic Black card using the Decorative Ribbon Border Punch and attached it behind one long edge of a narrow strip of Whisper White card which is embossed using the Country Floral Dynamic Embossing Folder. The panel is attached to the bottom of Whisper White card.
I really love how this card turned out. So bright and pretty, don’t you think? I also want to let you know that whilst you won’t find the Country Floral Dynamic Embossing Folder in my shop just now but it will be available for purchase once the new catalogue goes live in June. The Best Birds stamp set is also on the retiring list so if you don’t have this stamp set and you need it, don’t delay in placing your order because once the catalogue ends it will no longer be available.
Bye for now,
