Seize the Birthday - Use Kraft & Red

 Hello friends.  It is time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Glenda wants to see Kraft and Red on our cards.  If you are not in to our "toppings" option, you can just make a birthday card.

We are also welcoming a new Team Member today -Jenny MartinGlad to have you with us Jenny.


I used SU Real Red to die cut the Memory Box Riverbank Large Layered Bloom.  It had 3 layers and I cut an extra layer to make the bloom fuller.  After gluing the layers together in the center, I added the die cut center from black, shaped it with my stylus and added it with a dimensional in the center.  I added some sparkle with my Wink of Stella pen.  The leaves were cut with a die from a new SU set  Memorable Blooms dies.  I glued the bloom and leaves to a kraft panel embossed with SU Exposed Brick 3D EF, and then to a white card base.  The sentiment is from Waffle Flower Essential Sentiments stamp & die set, stamped in Versafine Onyx Black ink.  I mounted it with bits of foam tape.

Now check out all the great cards by the team and our party guests over at Seize the Birthday.  I hope you will join us in this fun challenge.

I am also linking to the Triple B Challenge - Birds, Blooms & Butterfiles.

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

Happy Stamping,
JoAnn

  9. Love that big bold red bloom, JoAnn! I also like the soft kraft colour - all mine is a bit on the dark side.
