I made this birthday card for my daughter who loves pink and pearls.
Supplies Used The Stampin' Up! Pretties Kit was perfect for supplying the half pearls, stick pin and crystals.
I used the Brocade Basics stamp set (Stampin' Up!) and an Emboss Resist technique of stamping.
Cardmaking Steps First, I clear embossed the main stamp image- giving me the white images. Then I stamped off centre with the River Rock and Versa Mark and embossed again.
I used a brayer to apply the background colour, and added a little sponging in the top left-hand corner. I stamped multiple images of the half flower head in both Pink and River Rock on a separate sheet of white card and glued them at angles to the original flower heads- this formed clusters of flowers.
I attached the ribbons before matting the images onto white then River Rock card stock .
Pearls, stick pin and Happy Birthday tag were added last of all.
Ann, you make such pretty-looking cards! Once again, I'm delighted by your card submission! You daughter must be thrilled when she received this.
