Birthday Posies

Hello everyone!  October is a busy month for birthdays around here, so the Featured Stamper Challenge on Splitcoaststampers on Sunday inspired me to get a head start on creating the birthday cards I will need for next month.  Penny Strawberry was the featured stamper and this Thank You card inspired mine.

Creative Nugget:  All supplies used on this card are by Our Daily Bread Designs.  The top part of the background was embossed with the Boho Background Die while three matted rectangles cut from papers from the Rustic Beauty Collection were mounted to the bottom.  The whole panel was cut with the Flourished Star Pattern Die leaving a pierced border around the edge…love this!  A Beautiful Border die cut separates the top from the bottom.  The Pretty Posies Die set was used to create the flowers and some of the foliage.  The leafy flourish was cut with one of the Fancy Foliage Dies.  A sentiment from the Ornate Border Sentiments stamp set was stamped on Stitched Ovals.  Some silk ribbon and gold beads were added to finish the card.

This card will be submitted for the following challenges:

ODBDSLC256 - Emboss Your Own Background
Chocolate, Coffee, & Cards #100 - Celebration
Crafting From the Heart #79 - Anything Goes
Inky Impressions Challenge #274 - Dots & Stripes

Thanks so much for stopping by…have a blessed day!

Hugs,
