It was Linda's birthday a few days ago and for once I got the month right. We've only known each other 40+yrs but for some reason I nearly always think her birthday is October and I was determined to get it right this year. This was the card I made for her.
I already had the Infusions background piece from a little play when I first bought these gorgeous little bottles of powder and can't remember what colours I used now. The photo doesn't really show them very well and probably looks a bit dull but there are some lovely little splashes of blue and lemon.
I stamped the wildflowers (Artemio stamps) with Versamark Ink and heat embossed with bright white embossing powder and then overstamped with black Archival once the embossing had cooled down. I distressed the edges and and then applied Star Dust Stickles all the way round and onto the flowers and left it to dry. I stamped the sentiment & butterfly onto a scrap of the background and gave them the Stickles treatment and left to dry too. I then assembled the pieces and stuck them to a base card.
Linda was really happy with the card and my two nieces liked it too. I'm just pleased I got it there on time this year, lol!
Have a good day everyone...soon be Friday ;-)
Hugs
