Today's card was one of those that I started with one idea and ended with a completely different one. I'm sure you all have days like that or am I the only one!
I stamped the Whisper White base card (#106549) using Gorgeous Grunge stamp set (#c130517, #w130514) and Wisteria Wonder ink (#126985). The Elegant Eggplant card (#108614) was embossed with the Woodgrain folder (#127821). I wrapped a piece of the 5/8" Organza Ribbon around this then added the sentiment on the top. Happy Birthday is from the Label Love stamp set (#c130622, #w130619) using Elegant Eggplant ink (#126969) and punched with the coordinating Artisan Label punch (#130920). The flower from Mixed Bunch (#c125537, #w128442) is punched with the Blossom Punch (#125603). The Gold Foil Sheets (#132622 were used to outline the sentiment and flower. Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the sentiment and flower to the card. A Pearl Basic Jewel (#119247) was coloured using the darkest of the Daffodil Delight Blendabilities (#130998). As the Blendabilities are alcohol based, they will colour almost anything, making them very versatile.
Are you wondering how to do the gold on the flowers and sentiment? Well all you do is punch the Blossom Punch and Artisan Label from the Gold Foil sheets. Cut the Artisan Label in half and attach to the top and bottom of the Happy Birthday that has been punched. Then for the flower, cut the gold petals to the centre so that all are separate, then tape to the flower.
That's all for today.
Till next time,
Happy Stamping,
Lesley.
