Happy Birthday

Hi Bloggers.

I'm demoing at Strikes Garden Centre in Stokesly today 10 till 4 - please pop by if you're in the area. I had a long drive up here yesterday so would be great to see lots of people at the demo.

I have a very simple card today made up from some demo bits -

I stamped the frame image and the sentiment together from John Lockwood's Dogwood Flower Clear Stamp Set onto Coconut White Card using Perfect Medium and embossed with Phill Martin Cosmic Shimmer Decadent Grape Embossing Powder. I used a Spellbinders 6 x 6 Matting Basics B Die with the out of the box technique in a couple of places to cut it out.

I cut a delicate fancy frame out of Coconut White Card using Spellbinders Blooming Collection.

I cut the largest die in the Spellbinders Triple Floral Die Set out of Lilac Card. At the emboss stage, I added the next sized die to give me a faux piercing effect. I added a little 3mm White Pearl in the centre of each flower around the frame.

I assembled the card as shown adding a little Purple Dazzler to each corner and piercing around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
