We have a new theme for "Self Made Flowers" at Everybody Art Challenge and we would love for you to join us there. My teamies have plenty of inspiration for you.
I was commissioned to make a 100th birthday card for a friend's mother whose birthday is later this month and whose favourite colour is yellow and favourite flower is Primrose. I bought an Elizabeth Craft die for the flowers and primrose leaves and spent a very long time making these pretty blooms. I added some simple embossed squares, small punched flowers, additional leaves and of course the all important numbers before stamping my sentiment. I hope Katie likes the card when she receives it.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
Make my Monday -#145 Spring or Easter. I think these spring flowers fit the bill
Sweet Stampin - Special Woman
Time Out #184 April with a quote about gardens and again, I feel this floral card works well
Cute Card Thursday - #680 Anything Goes
Sieze the Birthday #211 Squares
Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes
Watercooler Wednesday - #312 Helen's All about Occasions
