Here’s another birthday card, this time based on this week’s Retro Sketch challenge. I had some flowers stamped from this project, and this sketch seemed perfect for them.
I tried a couple different patterned papers for the right-hand side of the sketch, but they all seemed too busy, so I did a partial embossing with the Cuttlebug Polka-dot embossing folder. I couldn’t find any good way to add a bow either. I tried twine, thin ribbons, and twine, but my CAS style won out on this one.
The flowers are stamped with Papertrey Ink’s Rosie Posie and Rosie Posie Step 2 stamp sets, and the sentiment is from Papertrey’s Daydreamer set. I die cut the circle with a Spellbinders Small Circles die. The inside sentiment reads, “Hope all your birthday wishes come true.”
Linking this to CASual Friday’s Birthday Bash challenge and Simon Says Anything Goes.
I love the partial embossing on this, really effective 🙂
I had never though of only embossing part of something but it is so effective! Just lovely again …
Such a pretty card! I am now convinced I NEED that Rosie Posie Step 2 stamp set!! Thanks for enabling! 🙂
Gorgeous card! Love those pretty flowers!
Thank you very much for joining us this week at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog!
Hugs…
