I attended my upline's card club and this was one of the cards everyone made. I loved it so much that I immediately bought the stamp set (With All My Heart), from the Occasions Mini Catalog. I'm hoping it is in the new catalog coming out on July 1st. I LOVE this stamp set. This card was super simple and quick to make. I also used the Extra Large Fancy Flower punch (still available and will be available in the new catalog) to punch out the flower.
Did you find the fun technique I used on it? Faux Suede I used it on the stem of the flower. Go to THIS post to see how to do the Faux Suede technique.
I used this card as my inspiration for this next card:
Thanks Sally for designing the previous card which gave me the inspiration for this birthday card!
I used the same Faux Suede technique on the stem of this flower. I just love the look, don't you? Now for this flower, I used the Extra Large Fancy Flower punch and punched out 5 flowers. Check out THIS post to see how I made the flower. I bought some cheap body spray in a flower scent, and before I attached the flower to my card, I sprayed it with the body spray. This gave the flower a very light and lovely scent. Again, another quick and simple card to make. Due to the 3-D flower, this card really can't be mailed. But then, when you make a card like this, don't you like to see the face of the person you are giving it to when they open the card? I do. It's worth all the time I put into making the card.
My open house is this Saturday from 9am to 12pm. I hope you are able to stop by. I will be selling older retried stamps, have a few door prizes, special surprises for those that come, and those that place orders on Saturday, free make-n-takes with retiring items and sneak peek items. Let me know if you are planning on coming. This way I have enough projects and surprises for everyone.
Happy Thursday!
