Birthday Card for Crystal


I made this card for my niece who is having a birthday next week.  The picture is from Whimpsy Stamp Sweet Blossom colored with Copic Markers.  I used foam tape behind the Enchanted Die'sire Create-A-Card Everyday Dies by Crafter's Companion to give the card more layers and added Ranger's Liquid White Pearl on the frame in the middle of some flowers.  

I used  Cherry Lynn Designs Baby Breath flowers and Flourish Leaf Strip and glued it behind the bow.  The lace behind the card is also a Cherry Lynn die called the Francesca border.  I ruffled the paper lace with my fingers before gluing it onto the card to make it look like real lace.

The sentiment is from Inkadinkado and the doily frame for the sentiment is from Marianne Designs.  I used pearls around the doily to accent the sentiment and used a sponge with pink ink around the doily frame.

I am entering this card in the following challenges this week:
Scrapy Land Challenge #21:  Anything Goes using any brand of die Scrapy Land sells
Simon's Wednesday Challenge:  Furry Friends
