Sometimes I have a particular idea for a card and it may or may not end the way I first imagined it. Other times I start with no firm ideas and the finished card I feel is much nicer than I expected which is how I felt about this card.
I started by colouring the right side of the Basic White card front (#159228) with Highland Heather ink (#147103), Coastal Cabana ink (#147097) and Polished Pink ink (#155712) using Blending Brushes (#153611). Then I stamped the beautiful flourish from the Sentimental Swirls stamp set (#157996) with VersaMark (#102283) and Embossed with the Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555). This was set with the Heat Tool (#129056).
I stamped the flowers and the dragonfly from the Dragonfly Garden stamp set (#154411) with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) then the dragonfly was punched with the Dragonflies punch (#154240). The flowers were coloured with Stampin’ Blends - Fresh Freesia (#155518), Polished Pink (#155520) and Pool Party (#154894 for the leaves.
I matted the card front with Basic Black card (#121688). The Metallic Mesh Ribbon (#153550) was wrapped around the card front, then the card front was attached to the Basic White card base.
Happy Birthday is from the Special Moments stamp set (from sale-a-bration). This was stamped with VersaMark and heat embossed with the Black Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554). A label from the Potted Succulents dies (#154330) was used to cut the sentiment. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach this to the card. The Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#144220) were added to finish the card.
