Shabby Chic Stampin Up Birthday card



I was just making cards and needed a special one for my daughters 50th birthday. And yes I'm that old. LOL.  She loves pink, and I think this has just the right amount of pink. 
I used Whisper White for my card base, then Baked Brown Sugar.

I used my Smoky Slate stamp pad for the text, it's the new Dictionary background stamp. I had to have this one soon as I saw it.
I stamped off onto scratch paper once first to get it this light, then onto my white piece. 
The doily went on next, then a Blushing Bride flower cut from the Blossom Punch and over stamped with Delicate Doilies, but lots of stamps would work as well. The top flower is cut using the Pansy punch.

I used a new Candy dot in the center.  I then stamped the birthday sentiment from the Sketched Birthday set and cut out using the Bitty Banners framelits.

Thanks for stopping by, hope this gives you some ideas for your own cards.
