This birthday card was created for a special friend. I used a background stamp and fancy die for the layer, adding a die cut flower colored with copic markers and popped up for some dimension. This is for the SSS Monday Challenge "Birthdays!" The inside of the card continued the theme of purple flowers and fancy die cut around the perimeter.
Welcome to my blog. Ten years ago I discovered that making cards was super fun. I keep learning as I watched many expert crafters and artists on the internet. Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Birthday
Here's a card anyone would love to receive for their birthday. I used distress ink blending and a stencil for the back ground masking the middle for a silhouette stamped image. I created a matching envelope, too. Entering this in the Monday SSS Challenge.

Florals for any occasion
I used a technique from Jennifer McGuire to create this background. It takes a stencil dry embossed over a water color panel which has already been inks with colors of your choice. I die cut the focal point and added the same color around the outside to tie it together. It's a simple card for any occasion. Putting this on the SSS Create Your Own Background Challenge.
I Miss Your Face
The pandemic is not quite over, and when I saw this "mask" out of paper, I had to try it!! SO CUTE... and brightens your day. I created a happy background, too, with small rainbows. Entering this on the SSS Make Your Own Background Challenge.
You Make a Difference
One of my favorite stencil sets from SSS was used to create the background of this card, "You" adds some dimension along with the strip "make a difference." Placing this on the SSS Wednesday Challenge.
