Birthday Card Idea - Glorious Flowers

This week's card idea is to play around with flowers on patterned papers. I believe you can regularly find patterned papers filled with pretty flowers. It's a matter of finding some which allows you to cut out different types of flowers in various sizes to embellish your card creation. I've chosen a piece of Basic Grey "Romani - Romany" patterned paper which has beautiful flower prints on it! Not only did I cut out flowers, but I managed to trim out some leaves to decorate the card too. Look through your patterned papers and see if you can find some glorious flower designs to use on your next card creation! Have fun!
Card Making Steps 1. Create a cardblank from gray cardstock (or any other color as it's covered up at the front anyway). 2. Cut out a big block of beige patterned paper to cover up the front of the cardblank. 3. Cut out a slightly smaller floral/words patterned paper and ink the edges with brown ink. Adhere it on top of the beige patterned paper. 4. Cut out a strip of green ribbon and attach it across the lower part of the card. Tie a bow ribbon and attach it to the right of the ribbon strip. 5. Cut out a small strip of tan cardstock. Handwrite birthday greetings on it. Ink the edges with brown ink. Attach it on top of a slightly bigger strip of red patterned paper. Attach the completed tag to the card as shown. 6. Cut out assorted flowers and leaves from floral patterned paper. Attaching some of the pieces with foam pads or foam dots for added dimensions.
