A card for Sarah

My eldest daughter recently celebrated her birthday last week and I thought I would share the card I made for her. I began by embossing Smoky Slate card using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. The embossed panel is attached to scored and folded Poppy Parade card before adding the wreath from the Forever Gold Laser Cut Specialty Designer Series Paper. I cut Granny Apple Green using one of the dies from the Flourishing Forever Dies and cut it in half. I stamped the small leaf image from the Forever Fern stamp set onto Whisper White card using Granny Apple Green ink and cut them out using the co-ordinating Forever Flourishing Die.

I stamped the large and small flowers from the Forever & Always stamp set onto Whisper White card using Poppy Parade ink. I coloured the flowers using the Light Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blend and cut them out, the large flower using the co-ordinating Always Die and the small flower by hand (I didn’t want any white on the edge of the small flower). I attached the small flower to the centre of the large flower using dimensionals and added some of the Gold Thread from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack to the back of the flowers.

I layered the leaves onto the bottom of the wreath and attached the flower over the top using dimensionals. I stamped the greeting from the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set onto Whisper White card using Poppy Parade ink and cut it out using the Stitched Rectangle Dies. The greeting is attached to the card front using dimensionals. I coloured three large Basic Rhinestones using the Dark Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blend and attached them to the card front.To decorate the inside of the card, I stamped another greeting from the Itty Bitty Birthday stamp set onto Whisper White card using Poppy Parade ink. I stamped the small flower from the Always & Forever stamp set next to the flower using Poppy Parade ink. I coloured the flower as before using the Light Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blend.
So pretty and I am not sure if you can see it but I did add some Clear Wink of Stella to the flower to give it a little shine.
Bye for now,
Kris
