A floral birthday card for you today….Memory Box Chrysanthemum Collage and poppystamps Bellina Butterfly Stem…sentiment from poppystamps Ornamental Butterflies stamp set.
I die cut the Chrysanthemum Collage in a die cut rectangle from the Memory Box Rectangle Layers die set. I thought it was a fun idea to just use a part of the collage die.
I inked the card-base where the flowers would be placed on top with Picked Raspberry Distress ink and the ink blending tool.
I die cut poppystamps Bellina Butterfly Stem die in white and inked it to color it with Cracked Pistachio and Picked Raspberry Distress ink and the ink blending tools.
I stamped the sentiment with the MISTI stamping tool and Versafine Onyx Black ink.
