Seize the Birthday Challenge - #305 Flowers


Our leader,Nancy is our hostess for this challenge and the topping is flowers. 
Of course you can just make it a birthday card and still enter. 
But what fun it would be to use the topping for a chance to be a guest designer with us! 

Here is how I started my card. This is a sheet of 6X6 design paper from Spellbinder Woodland Tales. It actually looks like it had wrinkles in it, but it is just shading. 


By just adding more dimension with die cut flowers and leaves, this card came together quickly. 


A close-up picture. 



Supplies for this card:
Spellbinders Woodland tales design paper
Layered Anemone die
The Greetery Botani Cuts Palm die
Gina K Designs the Northern Woods for the sentiment. 



We have a Surprise Party Quest with us for the next two months. I am sure that you have seen her work before as she is not new to paper crafting. We are happy to have her. 
Give her some love!





Thanks for stopping by and I always appreciate your comments!
