A few days ago I showed a Christmas card that had this wreath shape made with the Gina K wreath builder template. While I had the template out, I decided to look through my stamps and see what else I could come up with – and I decided on this! This is a 2 step stamp in the Picture Perfect Birthday set done in the 2 new purples, Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape. (The hearts are Melon Mambo – seriously!)
Birthday Banners is the Karen Burniston Design Challenge for this month! I used the Tag Book die and it comes with the banner piece – so that was easy! The flowers are die cut using the Karen Burniston Flowers and Bee die in Real Red, Sweet Sugarplum, Berry Burst and white with some glitter embellishments in the centers. The bee was cut out of Daffodil Delight and Vellum card stock and paper pieced together. I cut the Tag Book in Berry Burst and added some Tutti-frutti Designer Series paper that will be in the new Occasions paper along with the stamp, Picture Perfect Birthday and the Glimmer paper.
I repeated the flowers and leaves on the inside of the Tag Book die.The DSP on the inside is from Eastern Palace Specialty paper in Lemon Lime Twist.
A little bit of sparkle trailing along the inside.
And more banners and bees. Check out how the banner pieces have the little design in the die! The Celebrate is from Tabs for Everything. Hugs, Fran
You can see more cards from the entire team here! Karen will publish on Wednesday.
