Birthday Wishes card, JAI#470 challenge
This turned out to be harder then I thought. The challenge is to make a card without stamping. Not much of a problem except for the sentiment, so it took a lot of thought.
I could have taken the easy way out and just die cut or punched out designs and layered it on the paper and left no sentiment, but I always have to make it hard for myself. So, check out what the team did for this one.
I was going to use the punched out flower in the Floral Essence set, but then I realized, I couldn't without stamping them. I mean I could have, but they wouldn't have look as neat with out the stamping.
The paper I used is just gorgeous. It's photos of actual art work, with stunning flowers and colors. This piece is one of the more plain pieces, and I cut the flowers from one of the pieces as well. It's called Perennial Essence.
I used Pretty Peacock and Blushing Bride and the Stitched Nested Label Dies that come in the bundle with the Free as a Bird stamp set.
Thanks for stopping by, I hope I gave you some inspiration.
