A Birthday card made recently ....
The base is a 6 x 6 inch white card blank. I then cut a piece of white card to 5.75 inches square and die-cut a stitched edge aperture in the centre.
I then made a background with translucent acrylics (IndigoBlu) on a piece of wet watercolour card. Once dry I passed through an embossing folder to add some pattern. I cut a piece and applied to the back of the die-cut piece.
The leaves and flowers are all die-cut from pale green, turquoise and yellow cards. The flowers were centred with opposite coloured self- adhesive gems. They were added on foam pads in a pleasing arrangement at one corner of the aperture.
The 'Happy Birthday' (Stampin' Up) was stamped on blue card in Versafine black ink, die-cut and mounted on foam pads as shown.
The card was finished by applying the aperture front on foam pads on the card base ......
