STAMPIN' UP! PLENTIFUL PLANTS BIRTHDAY CARD

My darling daughter-in-law is 25 today.  Here is the card I made for Tanikka, using seven (!) sets of dies, and an embossing folder.  Did anyone else start making cards because it would "save so much money"?  😂  It's just as well this beautiful hobby brings us so much joy!

I started with a Pool Party card base, and added a layer of Basic White card.  I then embossed another Basic White panel with the Brick & Mortar 3D embossing folder.

The horizontal strip across the front of the card is a piece of Coastal Cabana cardstock, on which I used the Stitched Greenery Die.  I tucked a Basic Borders die cut, in Crumb Cake card, underneath that.

The sentiment, from the Peaceful Moments stamp set, was white heat-embossed on a scrap of Coastal Cabana card.  I used a Beautiful Trees Die to cut it out.  The numbers were cut from a piece of Pool Party card decorated with the Stitched Greenery Die.  (I attached Foam Adhesive Sheet to the piece of card before die-cutting it.)  Afterwards, I used my Pool Party Stampin' Blends markers to create a subtle ombre effect on the numbers.

The flower pot was stamped in Pool Party ink on a concrete-patterned piece of paper from the Bloom Where You're Planted DSP pack.  The plants in the pot were die-cut from another piece of paper in that same pack.

Here's a closer look at the embossed background, and the hanging plants and bird.  The bird was cut from a Baby Clothes Die, and the heart was cut out from Ice Cream Parlor Designer Series Paper (just retired), using a Birds & More Die.
