HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Hello and thanks for popping by today to see my latest project.

This is the third card that I have made drawing inspiration from the Sentimental Rose Card Kit.

Today’s card is inspired by the floral birthday card.

I started by water colouring a piece of Shimmery White cardstock in a similar way to the kit card. Then I used the dark Gray Granite Stampin’ Blend to create the flecks across the front. The edges of the layer were distressed to create extra texture. I tied and trimmed a length of Gray Granite Shimmer Ribbon and wrapped it around the water coloured layer.

The Flirty Flamingo layer was embossed using the Bark 3D Embossing Folder. This layer was then attached to the Gray Granite card base at an angle and the water coloured layer was offset over the first layer.

I took a Square Vellum Doily and used it as a mask to create the Gray Granite square layer. It was popped up using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I water coloured a second piece of Shimmery White card stock for the rose and leaves. Once the paper was dry, I stamped the images and fussy cut them. They were layered, adhered and popped up on the doily layer. The birthday greeting was stamped and trimmed down before it was placed on the card.

To finish the card, as you may know, I stamped the rose on the card insert and envelope. Last, but not least, I used a dark Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blend to colour some Pearl Basic Jewels.

I enjoyed making the three sample cards from the Sentimental Rose Card Kit for my upcoming Coffee and Card class. And, it was fun to see what I could create bu using those three cards as inspiration. What do you think?

Happy stamping.
