I made this pretty Birthday Card using the Garden Gatherings Bundle. The background plaid was created using one of the new Shimmer Brushes and a Clear Block.
The Color Combo is from my May Inspiration Calendar - Barely Blush, Garden Green and Fresh Freesia.

Tips & Instructions
Barely Blush Card Base - 5-1/2 x 8-1/2, score at 4-1/4
Basic White Layer - 4 x 5-1/4, use a Barely Blush Shimmer Brush to create the background plaid. With a Barely Blush Shimmer Brush, draw lines diagonally across the layer, then draw the other way. I used a Clear Block F to help guide me drawing the lines. Adhere to the card base.
Stamp the two sets of stems in Garden Green ink on Basic White. Stamp the flowers for each in Fresh Freesia ink. Die cut with coordinating dies.
Die cut the two vases from Barely Blush. Emboss the vases using the Stone & Vine 3D Embossing Folder. Use a Blending Blush to add some Barely Blush ink onto the vases.
Basic White - (2 pieces) 1-1/2 x 3-5/8.
Adhere the flowers and vases to the white pieces. Adhere to the card with Dimensionals.
Stamp the sentiment in Garden Green ink on Basic White. I broke it into 2 lines. Fussy cut around it and adhere to the card with Dimensionals.
On the inside layer (4 x 5-1/4), stamp the sentiment in Fresh Freesia ink. Stamp the vase and stems in Garden Green ink and the flowers in Fresh Freesia ink. Stamp the water in Pool Party ink.
I love the embossed vases and that sparkly background on this card.
