The card base is Whisper White cardstock cut to 5 ½ x
8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”. The second layer
was created using Designer Series Paper from the Ornate Gardens paper pack,
that was cut to 4 x 5 ¼”. My third layer
was cut out using the Stitched Rectangle dies from Crushed Curry cardstock. I also cut out the third largest circle from
the Layering Circles dies from Whisper White.
I then stamped my sentiment “Happy Birthday” which is from the Peaceful
Moments stamp set with VersaMark ink and then added Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder
and heat set it with my Heat Tool.
Once my circle was all stamped and ready to go, I added
it to the center of my card base and started to build my wreath. I grabbed my dies from the Arrange a Wreath
bundle and cut two layers of the wreath out one from Soft Seafoam cardstock and
one from Pear Pizzazz cardstock. I then
cut my bow for my card out of Gold Foil using the die from the set. I did pop my top layer of my bow up using a Mini Dimensional to give the bow more depth.
Now it was time to begin work on my flowers, they
sound hard but are actually really easy to do.
I cut two large and one small flower out (I used the coordinating dies
and there are multiples so it goes pretty quick) of each of the following
cardstock colors: Blushing Bride, Flirty
Flamingo, Purple Posy, Highland Heather, Mint Macaroon and Pool Party. Once I had them all cut out I turned them
upside down on my Stamparatus Foam Mat and using my Take Your Pick Tool with
the stylus end I carefully pulled each petal towards the center of the flower,
once all the petals were done I turned the flower over and placed the ball of
my stylus right in the center and moved it in a circular motion (think stirring
a pot) this helped me get my shape. Once
all the petals were done, I simply glued two large and one small flower together
being sure to off set the petals. I then
added these to my wreath (I found Mini Glue Dots worked best for this). For my final embellishment I added one of the
Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the center of each flower.
