Elegant Birthday Card

When I saw this floral pattern on the Designer Series Paper from the Flowering Cactus Medley, I knew I had to use it to make a birthday card.

This paper is so pretty and you can get it in the complete medley or just purchase the refill and get the paper, felt and twine. I’ll have both options listed in the supply list.

I used the Detailed Bands Dies to cut this delicate layer for the sentiment. You can stamp the sentiment and cut it out with the oval die from this set and it fits perfectly on the background layer.

On the inside stamp sentiment with Gorgeous Grape Ink. Stamp the flower image 3 times across the bottom with Gorgeous Grape Ink but stamp off first to get a lighter shade. The sentiment is from the Band Together Stamp Set and the flowers are from the Flowering Cactus Medley.
