DT: ATSM – #488 – Birthdays

Hello! Thanks for coming over to my little patch of the internet! Today I have a card I made for the Addicted to stamps and more design team.

I decided it had been a while since I dug into my pouch of gelli prints I made a while ago and so that became the background for my card. I then grabbed a magazine stamp set from Altenew which features two fab flowers and a coordinating stencil (one them also has a die but I didn’t use it).

I stamped the flowers onto some pale blue cardstock and embossed with a dark blue powder and then used the stencils to add some colour.

I then used a stampin blend to edge around the outside to give it a dark edge. Then I fussy cut them out.

I then embossed the edge of the gelli print to tie into the floral elements and I mounted the background onto the same blue which I had edged with the stampin blend.

I glued the flowers into place but raised the one to the left with some scrap cardstock underneath and then decided to add my sentiment on the same pale blue but stamped in navy.

The sentiment is from Waffleflower and I die cut it four times to make it nice and chunky!

Again I added some scrap beneath one side of it so it was at a similar level to the flower on the left.

I then added the panel to a 5×7 card blank.

I used some blue gems to embellish and that finished it off nicely!

Happy crafting!
