Hello friends. It is time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Glenda would like to see Food and/or Drink on our cards, of course it can be anything goes as longs as it is for a birthday. I would like to welcome Karen Letchworth who is joining us as our Surprise Party Guest for the next two months.
I was looking through my stamps to find one with food and found this older SU stamp set Sweet as A Peach and decided to use it. I used SU Peekaboo Peach (ret.) to stamp the 3 peaches, stamping them twice. I stamped the leaves twice with Granny Apple Green ink. I die cut the peaches & leaves with the matching dies and then had to decide how I wanted to use them. I had recently received this frame stamp & die set by the Greetery, Sweetest Frames, and decided to use it to place the peaches on. I stamped it and die cut with the matching dies, then stamped the sentiment from the Sweet as A Peach set. The pattern paper was laying on my table from another project and I thought it went perfect with the peaches. I mounted the frame with foam tape and then glued the peaches on the bottom right corner. I added pieces of foam tape under the parts not on the frame. There were small flowers in the stamp set but I decided to die cut some small white flowers with Spellbinders Be Bold Blooms set. The centers were cut from white and inked with Peekaboo Peach ink. The leaves were from a cluster in the stamp set and I cut them apart to glue under the flowers. I really like the finished card - thanks Glenda for a fun challenge.
I hope you will check out all the fabulous food/drink cards by the team and our guests over at Seize the Birthday and join in our fun challenge.
I will also link to AAA Birthday #75 - summer birthday.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day.
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
