Floral Birthday

Flowers do not always have to be positioned on a card vertically.  




I wanted to "shake up" my card design and position this stamp horizontally, 
and add the sentiment within the stems.
I loved how it turned out, but
thought that the flowers needed a little bit
of sparkle...
so I added a bit of stickles on the peach flowers
to make the card just a little bit more fun.

Here is what it looks like...


Did you also notice something?  Ruminating Smiley

This is a single layer card.
Yep, and even though I did not add extra papers, 
embellishments, or ribbons...
the card is pretty striking.

Have a great day...Flower for You Smiley

Loving Tree

We have quite a few friends celebrating Anniversaries over the next several months, 
thus I decided to create a simple card 
to express our congratulations.
And this is what I came up with...


In order to add a bit of interest and dimension
to the card I decided to cut out the heart
and adhere it to the tree using 3D foam adhesive.
For an added bit of sparkle, 
I used stickles on the heart...


...it was a great way to make the
card a little extra special.

Don't you just "love it"?  Luv Ya Smiley



Have a great day!  Proposing Smiley with Heart Balloon and Flowers
