STAMPIN' UP! FAVORED FLOWERS BIRTHDAY CARD #2

Today I am sharing another birthday card using the flowers I cut from Favored Flowers Designer Series Paper, that is FREE with a $90+ Stampin' Up! purchase until the end of February.

Blackberry Bliss is a colour I don't normally gravitate towards, but I love the richness and drama of it in these papers.  I've used a couple of different designs from the paper pack, to create the background on my card, and affixed a single hand-cut bloom as an accent (or is it a feature?) on the sentiment panel.

Across the join of the floral background paper, with the geometric-patterned paper, I laid a length of Fresh Freesia Open Weave Ribbon, and added a bow once I had secured the sentiment panel.

The lovely big sentiment, from the Amazing Year stamp set, was stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink, using the Stamparatus, on a Deckled Rectangle of Basic White card.  After stamping the image, I ran the die-cut rectangle through my Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine, using a Basics 3D embossing folder that will be coming out in March.

After gluing the large rose and leaves to my card front, I added some Basic Rhinestones that I'd coloured using my Dark Fresh Freesia Stampin' Blends marker.

If you come back to visit my blog this afternoon, I will have another birthday card made with these papers.  The shares will be coming thick and fast, in an effort to blog lots of cards in the coming days!

Listed below are the current products used to make this card.  The embossing folder is a sneak peek; I can't yet link to it in my online store (it will be available in March).  If you live in Australia, and would like to shop with me for your Stampin' Up! supplies (and earn freebies before the end of the month!), you can get to my online store by clicking on any of the thumbnail images below.
