Hey crafty friends - hope you're enjoying the weekend!! Since I had some pieces from Sunny Studio's Botanical Backdrop still on the craft table, I used them on three quick and easy birthday cards. If you missed my Twofer Challenge cards using this die, see them here if interested.
When I dry embossed a black panel for my Twofer, I also did one in white and one in kraft. Those panels were my jumping off point for cards one and two. On both of these I overlaid an embossed flower with a die cut one and added extra bits. Because I had die cut an entire glittery panel with all the flower parts too, I had an extra leafy frame for card three. I'm adding that one to Watercooler Wednesday for the current All About Occasions Challenge. The sentiment is from a new Sunny Studio bday set called Inside Greetings Birthday - love this set!!
Quick post today - off to think of designs for a masculine birthday and for my Die Cut Diva February posts. Better get moving!!
Thanks for stopping!! Check back Sunday if you're interested in last day inspiration for the Die Cut Diva January Challenge - would love to see your cards in the gallery!! Happy crafting!!
