I dry embossed Solar White Cardstock with the Sunshine Blossoms Folder. I used the crisp dye inks to lightly add color through the stencil. I added more details with the colored pencils. Added color to the flower centers with Paper Bag Crisp Dye ink and my finger. I added some blue ink lightly around the florals with a Detailed Blending Brush. Colored the front of a white card base with the Hydrangea Crisp Dye Ink and adhered the colored panel to it with the Ultra Sticky Double-Sided Tape. Cut out the "happy" from some black cardstock and adhered it to the card with liquid adhesive. Stamped the sentiment onto a strip of cardstock and added it with the Instant Dimension Foam Tape.

Products used:

Playful Circles 3D Embossing Folder

All About Wishes Word Die Set

Leaf Mix Dies

Tropical Leaf Mix Dies

Birthday Greetings Stamp Set

Tissue Paper

Gold Mirror Cardstock

Obsidian Black Ink

Instant Dimension Foam Tape

When my order came, one of the items on the list was the tissue paper that the items come wrapped in. I have thought about using it before, and I really wanted to use it this time, It is so pretty. I think someone else used the tissue paper as well. I used some spray adhesive on a piece of white cardstock and smoothed the tissue paper over it. I cut the big floral out using scissors and dry embossed it with the Playful Circles Folder. I used the leaf dies to cut out some leaves out of the tissue paper as well as the gold mirror cardstock. I embossed a piece of white cardstock with the Geo Triangles Embossing Folder. Adhered that with another piece of Mirror cardstock to a white card base. Adhered the floral and leaves with the Instant Dimension Foam Tape. Cut the "birthday" once from the mirror cardstock and twice from white, adhered them together and then to the card. and added the "happy" sentiment. 

Thank you so much for visiting. Hope you found a little inspiration.
