Treat yourself

Today I’m showing you the birthday card I made for one of my regular class attendees.

Oh So Eclectic Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! Birthday Card designed by Karen Young at HIPPOFROG Designs

It uses really bright colours of Melon Mambo and Lemon Lime Twist. Using Night of Navy accents helps to tone these colours down. This combination creates a fresh and cheery look.

I chose to use the Oh So Eclectic Stamp Set and co-ordinating Eclectic Layers Thinlits Dies to create the leaves and flowers.

The sentiment is from Picture Perfect Birthday and if you can’t treat yourself on your birthday…

A strip of Crinkled Seam Binding in Night of Navy and a bow from the same help to balance the project.

I’ve used a Faceted Gem in Gold for the centre of the front flower.  This helps to hide the Dimensional that is holding it in place – remember, if you can’t see it, it isn’t there!

Here is a close up of the flowers.
