Happy Flowery Birthday!

 My Ma just had a birthday in April so I wanted to use my new SU! "Cottage Rose" stamp and die set to make her a pretty flowery card. 

Here's a sneak peek, you know what to do to see the whole card...


I absolutely LOVE how this card came out! I watercolored the flowers and leaves. There is some highlighting to all the flowers and leaves, but my lighting is horrible so it's not really that visible. But I assure you, they came out beautiful. 

I heat embossed the sentiment from the SU! "Birthday Blooms" stamp set and then slid it under the 3D flowers. I used some of those tiny diamonds from the Diamond Art kits, I had some left over from a few kits so I decided to go with adding them to some cards in place of gems or pearls to see how they'd work out, and I think they work out FAB! I have some other cards that I'll be posting that I used them on.

I put 1 white one in each of the corners, gives it the look of something holding the sentiment rectangle down. I added a few more here and there that match the colors of the flowers just to give some added flare to the card.


The smaller flowers are 3D, popped up with 3D foam pop dots, I wanted to the card to have at least some part of it to be 3D and these tiny flowers were the perfect idea. 

On the inside I used  tall flower arrangement and the sentiment for the birthday saying from the "Cottage Rose" stamp set.

I hope you enjoyed this card, I had a lot of fun making it and figuring out the arrangements for the flowers, sometimes, figuring out layouts is my favorite part of making a card!

Check back soon, I have more to share with you. 

Keep on Craftin'!
