Isn’t this a pretty birthday card? I love the Purple Posy Cardstock and the soft colors on the Vellum.
Here’s the sketch I used from a Splitcoaststampers Challenge.
This stamp set is FREE during Sale-A-Bration with a $50 purchase. The sentiments are so pretty and that cake!!! Perfect for a birthday or a wedding card.
Tips & Instructions
Purple Posy Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4
Purple Posy Layer - 5 1/4 x 4, emboss with Subtle Embossing Folder and adhere to card base
2 7/8 x 3 1/2 Vellum Layer, stamp cake image with Black Memento Ink (I stamped on a larger piece and just cut to the size I wanted so it doesn’t have to be this exact measurement.)
You can wait for the ink to dry or turn the vellum over and color on the back side. You can also dry with the heat tool but I find that it warps it some.
Color image with Stampin’ Blends (Purple Posy combo for the flowers, Dark So Saffron for flower centers, Old Olive combo for the leaves, Light So Saffron for the cake, Dark Rich Razzleberry for the berries, Dark Granny Apple Green for smaller leaves, Dark Smoky Slate for the cake plate)
Carefully adhere the vellum piece to the card, sparingly putting adhesive where the image is stamped. You don’t want it to show thru. I used the Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue.
5/8 x 2 1/2 strip of Whisper White - stamp sentiment with Highland Heather Ink and banner each end. I used the Banner Triple Punch to cut the banner ends. Adhere using Dimensionals
Adhere some pearls randomly on the card
