Birthday Bunch

Sorry for the super poor quality of this photo - can't wait til its summer and its light for longer so I can photograph outside in the sunshine and warmth! 

Today's card was for my downline, Sue, co-incidentally also my auntie-in-law.


Birthday Bunch

Stamp Set: Everything Eleanor, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Ink: Crumb Cake, Wild Wasabi, Perfect Plum
Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Wild Wasabi, Perfect Plum
Punch: Scallop Circle, Corner Rounder
Accessories: Linen Thread

I wanted to just try and make a little bit of a different card using my favourite stamp set, Everything Eleanor! I cracked out the stem - not one I've felt inspired to use until now! So I stamped the stem twice and then using the scallop circle and cutting each petal almost to the centre wrapped them up tightly and adhered them to the Vanilla cardbase. I used the fancy frame down the side, stamping it 3 times without reinking for differing shades. Finally I stamped the sentiment in Perfect Plum and tied some linen thread around the stems. Hope you liked this little one.

Catch you tomorrow for another Simply Stampin' Challenge!

    1. Thanks. Think next time I might do a bit of sponging to just make them a little more realistic! x
