Celebrate!



I made this card for this week's Off The Wall Craftiness Challenge. I deviated slightly from the challenge colors because I was inspired by the bouquet photo in the center right. Since the bouquet added a bit of extra color, I added it to my card as well.


Here are the DEEtails:

I started with the birthday stamp from my Everything Nice set. I really love how fun this stamp is! I used various Stampin' Write markers to ink each line - Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight, Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery, Rich Razzleberry, and Regal Rose. I added a Blushing Bride and So Saffron mat to make it really pop out. I adhered some Striped Grosgrain ribbon to my card (I am loving all the new colors that it comes in now) and tied a bit of Daffodil Delight Taffeta Ribbon to it. Then I adhered my matted image with Stampin' Dimensionals. I punched a bunch of flowers from my Itty Bitty Shapes punches in Blushing Bride, Pretty in Pink, and So Saffron, and added a splash of Rich Razzleberry and Poppy Parade. I crumpled each flower up and adhered it to my card.


Hope you like it!
