Floral Birthday Card

Been in long slumber..and yeah am back again with a floral birthday card :)

Hubby's Europe trip for 2 weeks and other family commitments kept me away from Crafting and...atlast made this card to blog again here before my India trip in coming week...Ya its 2 month vacation at India :)

This card is for a sweet friend of mine who is celebrating Birthday today!!! Very Happy Birthday dear :)


Wanted to keep it sweet and simple!

Embossed the front panel and added a Blossom four largest diecut as focal point, for mounting the stamped flowers. Flowers are heat embossed in watercolor paper and Distress ink - Fried brick is used for coloring it. Vellum diecut fluorish is added by coloring it with Distress ink - Crushed olive.



Butterfly is heat embossed with Black Zing Embossing powder in watercolor paper and colored with Distress ink -  Wild Honey.

Then these are cut and mounted on the focal diecut which is distressed on edges using Distress ink - antique linen.



Sentiment is added on the banner and added just below the floral arrangement.

Hope you like the card.
