Field Flowers Birthday Card

I made this card for CAS(E) this sketch challenge #6. The image is from SU! Field Flowers and I used 4 different colors of red, along with old olive ink. The blooms were fussy cut and popped up on foam tape. The embossing was done with a Hero Arts chevron ef, and the sentiment was done with an Inkadinkado stamper & cut with a SU! jewelry tag. The card base is PTI vintage cream and I matted with red cardstock. The ribbon is cream taffeta from Pizzazz Aplenty, and I attached the tag with some SU! gold cording.

My SIL's birthday card is finished:)



Wishing you all a great day today, and thanks for stopping by!

    That chevron embossing just pops here and your popped up flowers are oh so pretty. I love the simplicity of this one, Carol. Your SIL is a lucky lady for a couple of reasons: #1 she has you in her family and #2 because she is going to receive this lovely card. Enjoy your weekend and try not to go into withdrawal tomorrow afternoon without a race to watch.

    Gorgeous flowers, Carol, and I love the chevron embossing folder. I think this may be the first time I've seen it.
