Bottled Happiness Bold Happy Birthday Card

 Good Afternoon Everyone

Today's card uses a combination that's a little bold and unusual - in fact it was a combo that came up in Creative Colour Challenges a few weeks back. I was asked by a friend to create a Birthday card that had flowers but not soft girl flowers - yep that was literally my brief! haha. So, I had a scratch around in my head and remembered these colours, then went to work with the Bottled Happiness and Pansy Patch Stamp Sets. What do you think?



Measurements

Basic Black Card Stock

1pc - 4 1/8" x 11 3/4", scored at 5 7/8"

scraps

Basic White Card Stock

1pc - 5 5/8" x 3 7/8"

scraps

Daffodil Delight Card Stock

1pc - 3 3/4" x 5 1/2"

Garden Green Card Stock

1pc - 2 1/4" x 5 1/2"

---------------------------------------------

Take the Basic Black Card stock and fold along the score line to create your card base. Add the basic white piece to the inside.

Adhere the Garden Green and Cherry Cobbler pieces of card to the Daffodil Delight and ass this to the card front.

On scraps of Basic White stamp the floral bouquet twice. I used Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green for the two stamps, then added a bit of Daffodil Delight the the centre of the flowers with my Blends. Fussy Cut and pop to one side.

Using the Pansy Patch stamp set - stamp the two sentiments in Memento Black ink onto scraps of Basic White and trim, layer these both the Basic Black mats and trim to leave a nice even border.

Take these along with the fussy cut bouquets and arrange on the card front, adhering down with dimensionals.
