Yellow flowers birthday card

 Hi Everyone, my card today was for a girlfriend of one of the Nephews in the family. I had had the stamp in my magazine subscription and wanted to use it right away. I thought of a design of adding the image as a centrepiece of the card. The flowers were stamped twice and coloured. Next I stencilled a flower stencil avoiding the stamped flower, I also only went to the bottom of the stems to help "ground" the flower, although it doesn't seem it has in the photo. 

The stamped flowers were added to yellow card and attached onto the base card. I stamped the sentiment. Next, the flower heads were fussy cut and placed onto the flower image. 3 yellow gems were then added.

I forgot to take a photo of the insert, as it was a bit of a rush to send it. I stamped a flower head and added more stencilling and a verse.

  13. What a fresh design, Faith! I love the bright flowers and really admire your excellent fussy-cutting skills. The soft background stencilling really makes the flowers pop. How funny that you were a month early with the card - I know about belated cards so I wonder what we should call these lol!
    Hope you are well,
    Hugs
