Budding Blossom E20922

Happy Birthday 1  C14778

Cover-A-Card Script CC050

Budding Bloom D20921 

Beautiful You D20804

How I made my card:

• I created an A2 card from natural card stock.  I used a Deckle Rectangle stencil to brush on some pink distress ink and create an area.  I lightly stamped the Script CAC stamp before removing the stencil.
• Next, I took the inside portion of the stencil, and placed it over the area I had created.  I used embossing ink with foam applicator to create a border of embossing ink all around the area, then embossed with fine gold embossing powder for a border.
• I gold-embossed the Happy Birthday verse, and used a graphite pencil to add some shading to the letters.
• I gold-embossed the Budding Blossom onto a scrap piece of the natural card stock.  I colored this with Arteza Everblend alcohol markers.
• I fussy-cut the blossom, and added it to the card front, with some gold pearl accents.
• INSIDE:  I created another distress area as above, and stamped the Beautiful You verse with green ink.  I gold-embossed the Budding Bloom, and added that.

I hope you are enjoying our cards for the April Release.  There are so many fun stamps to work with.  Let me know in the comments which is YOUR favorite!
