Birthday Card for Someone Special

 Hello friends.  I have another birthday card to share today.  This one is for a good friend. She likes purple so that is the color I used.

I embossed the white panel with Gina K Designs Lattice EF and mounted it to a mat of SU Highland Heather, then to the white card base.  The pretty flowers & foliage are from Gina K Designs Delicate Flowers stamp, die & stencils.  After stamping the images, I used the stencils and SU Highland Heather and Granny Apple Green inks to blend the colors on.  I mounted the  large flower, flower spray and leaf spray with foam tape and glued the larger leaves under the edges of the petals.  The sentiment is from GKD Blooming Sunflower stamped in Highland Heather ink and die cut with the matching die.  I then cut it apart and glued it to the panel.  I really like the finished card and think my friend will also.

I will add this to the Triple B Challenge.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I wish you all a very Happy and Healthy New Year.

Happy Stamping,

JoAnn

Color Hues 100th Challenge

 Hello friends.  I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas.  Well it has been a busy month and I haven't posted any cards but have been busy making Christmas and Birthday cards.  I finally got one done for the Color Hues Challenge. It is their 100th challenge and I wanted to play along.

ETA;  My card was chosen as one of the Top 3 at Triple B Challenge.

I have had this Pinkfresh Studio Butterflies set for quite a while and this is the first time I have used it.  I thought it would be pretty in purple and blue and I like the way it tuned out.  I colored it with SU Azure Afternoon and Highland Heather Blends.  I also added some Stickles Diamond for a little extra glitz.  The sentiment is cut with Memory Box Happy Birthday Posh Script.  I did not use the bottom layer but cut the top layer from SU Highland Heather card.  I glued the sentiment to the white panel cut with Alex Syberia Sparkly Flakes Cover Die. I glued the body of the butterfly down and added foam tape under the wings.

I will also add this to Darnell's NBUS as this is the first time I have used this set.

and to the Triple B Challenge - Birds, Blooms & Butterflies

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.

Happy Stamping,

JoAnn
