Hello friends. It is time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and I am the hostess this week. I have chosen the theme of Green and White for our "Topping" option since it is St. Patrick's Day. If you are not into the "Topping" option, your card/project just has to be for a birthday. I hope you will join us in this fun challenge.
I had several thoughts on these colors but finally decided on flowers (no surprise there). I used the small daisy from SU Daisy Lane stamp set and stamped it 4 times in Soft Sea Foam, stamping off first before stamping for a lighter effect. I punched them with the matching punch and shaped them with my fingers, then glued two together and added a green rhinestone to the centers. I embossed a panel of Soft Sea Foam CS with Spellbinders Plaid EF. The white panel is die cut with a SU Ornate Layers die. I stamped the sentiment from SU Happy Thoughts in Wild Wasabi ink and mounted the panel with foam tape. I mounted the flowers with foam tape also and added Pear Pizzazz leaves die cut with a SU Forever Flourishing die. I cut it apart and spread it out. The final touch was the 3 small green rhinestones under the sentiment.
Be sure to check our all the fabulous cards by my teammates and our party guest over at Seize the Birthday. I look forward to seeing your creations in our gallery.
Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful day.
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
