Seize the Birthday #258

 

Today's card is celebrating spring birthdays as it fits the theme of our new Seize the Birthday challenge topping.  I found myself scurrying once again to get caught up after weeks of traveling so simple is the name of the game today.








Fortunately I placed this stamp set out on my crafty desk before leaving so I knew exactly what to create when I returned.  I used a multi-step stamp set to create the florals.  I currently have the most gorgeous lilies blooming outside my front door so I used a similar color palette for my design.  I added a narrow border of cardstock and popped the main panel up on the embossed card front using fun foam.  As per my usual, I added in a sprinkling of clear droplets to finish it off.

Supplies:
PaperTrey Ink - Botanical Silhouttes stamp set
PaperTrey Ink - unlabeled cover die (background embossing)
Distress Oxide ink

I invite you to visit our blog for more inspiration.  We'd love to see your card in our gallery.  Remember, our toppings are always optional but do remember to make it a birthday card.  

As always, thanks so much for spending a bit of your day with me!

Jules

    What a CAS beauty this is with those blue flowers! I wish there were more blue flowers that grow in gardens because they're so pretty to look at!

    Beautiful blue flowers on your CAS card. Fabulous card, Jules. I like that you framed your white card with the same blue.

    Jules, I Love the blue florals and the EF background adds just enough interest. The font on the sentiment is so pretty too! Well done!
