Watercolor Tulips "Happy Birthday" card

Hello Crafters!

A couple of weeks ago my wonderful Mother-in-Law celebrated her birthday.  For her birthday I made a bright and cheerful spring inspired birthday card.

The card used the lovely watercolor tulip stamp from Penny Black (4384K "promise me").  Distress Markers in Shabby Shutters, Peeled Paint, Abandoned Coral and Candied Apple were used on the stamp.  It was die cut using Memory Box Stitched Square Layers (see Scrapy Land for more Stitched Die sets).

The tulips were mounted on patterned paper from Graphic 45's Botanical Tea.  Pleated material (Recollections) was adhered as shown.  A wee white bow was added to the center.

The inside was Quietfire Design's lovely Happy Birthday stamped using the Abandoned Coral marker.  A piece of Graphic 45 Botanical Tea was adhered to the bottom.

Thank you for stopping by!  I do hope you enjoyed the card. :)
Have a happy, crafty day.
Big Hugs,
Kathy Jo

Hello Kraft Tag with Tulips

Happy Sunday, Crafteteers!

I was in a crafting "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" mood last night and ended up making this little tag.  The tag used all scrap materials (yay!).  Also, the two die sets and stamp set I have had since the end of last summer...but never used.  Feels good to finally use the dies, stamps and scrap material!

Hero Arts' background stamp Birds and Flowers (CG478) was stamped on Kraft paper.  Spellbinders Tulips Border (S4-211) and Tulips pendants (S4-209) were used as shown.  JustRite's Musical Notes Labels Twenty supplied the "HELLO!" sentiment.  The ribbon woven into the border was a piece of ribbon I had taken off a gift package.  :)

Thanks for stopping by and have a great Sunday!
