STAMPIN' UP! HEALING HUGS BIRTHDAY CARD

After making my card for last night's Colour Creations Showcase, featuring Daffodil Delight, I had some "bits" left over on my craft table.  I came up with another card, using the same colour combination:

I have used a piece of Whisper White card, embossed with the Parisian Flourish 3D embossing folder, as the background.  A wide strip of Smoky Slate card has been flicked with ink from my Dark Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends marker, before I adhered a trimmed strip of a Many Medallions die cut, in Basic Black card.

The sentiment (from Seaside Notions) is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, on Daffodil Delight card.  I used my Stamparatus to stamp it four times, to get an impression that was black enough for my liking!  The tiny Basic Gray butterflies either side of the sentiment were cut with Butterfly Beauty dies and have tiny rhinestones added.

 Here's a closer look at the "flicked ink" (an easy way to add a bit of detail to plain card) and beautiful medallion die cut.  As on last night's card, I coloured the roses by applying Daffodil Delight ink using a sponge dauber.  The leaves, however, were inked directly with my Basic Gray inkpad.

I have listed below all the products I used to make this card.  If you live in Australia, and would like to shop with me for your craft supplies, you can get to my online store by clicking on any of the thumbnail images below.
