Happy Hibiscus, Simply Said, Birthday Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. I have a few things to get ready for a couple of friends who are coming over to celebrate New Year's Eve with us but I thought I'd post a card first. I needed a break and card making is SO relaxing for me. I found this card on Pinterest and you can see it here. There were no instructions so please read on to see how I put it together.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. On top of that is a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock that was textured using the "Happy Hibiscus" hybrid embossing folder. This is a fun folder because the dies in the "Happy Hibiscus" bundle has a die that matches the flowers. How fun is that? After embossing I glued the piece to the front of the card.

The flowers were stamped next. I used Crushed Curry for the outline and Daffodil Delight for the solid part. The leaves were done using Shaded Spruce for the outline and Old Olive for the solid part. I die cut the pieces out, plus I die cut three white flowers at the same time.

Dimensionals were added to the two larger flowers and they were set in place on the front of the card. I glued the smaller one in place.

Next came the leaves, they were tucked in and set in place with Dimensionals.

The tiny white ones were added using a dot of glue. Each of the flowers got a crystal rhinestone.

The words are from the "Simply Said" set and were stamped using Old Olive ink. I used the die from the "Happy Hibiscus" bundle to cut them out. They were set in place using Dimensionals and the card was done.

This was a very fun and easy card to make. I love the yellow on white, it's such a soft looking card.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's birthday card,
Wanda
