Hello friends and happy Thursday. It is time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and this time Vicki would like us to have a "Touch of Green" on our cards.
The flower I used is from SU February Paper Pumpkin kit. I stamped it, colored with SU Petal Pink and Old Olive Blends, and then fussy cut it out. I mounted it with foam tape on a panel die cut with Spellbinders Hemstitch Rectangle die and then embossed with SU Subtle EF. The sentiment is from SU Happy Birthday to You (a free Sale-a-Bration set). I cut the sentiment apart so I could stamp it on the panel. I added the panel to an Old Olive mat, so the green would peek through, and then to my card base.
Be sure to check out all the great cards by my teammates over at Seize the Birthday and I hope you will join us in this fun challenge.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day.
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
