Happy Birthday-AAA Birthday Guest Designer

 




Today I am guest designing for the latest AAA Birthday card challenge. I was at my local book store this past weekend and picked up the latest issue of Simply Cards & Papercrafts. The publication included a floral stamp set from Craftworld called Wild Meadows and some lovely patterned paper. I stamped the gorgeous flowers onto white Copic-friendly cardstock, colored the images using my alcohol markers, and fussy cut around the edges leaving a small white border. I layered a strip of the pink polka patterned paper to the far right of my white A2 card base leaving a small border around the edge. Using some nesting circle dies from Gina K Designs I cut a circular frame out of basic black cardstock and adhered it to the card panel. I stamped the birthday sentiment from the same Craftworld stamp set using Versafine onyx black ink and cut it down into a small sentiment strip. Using foam tape, I popped my floral sentiment up in the center of the circle frame, adhered the sentiment on top with liquid glue, and adhered some pretty iridescent sequins around the focal image to finish up this pretty floral card. Thank you for stopping by my blog today!
