Missed Birthday

 I know it is hard to believe, LOL, but I did miss a birthday of a friend, I had stamped and die cut these flowers out awhile ago but wasn't sure of them at the time for the project I was doing so I left them in my unused goodies pile, so today I took them out to use on this card, shaped them a bit using my stylus and a foam mat and added some liquid pearls to the centers.  After I arranged them on my paper I thought it was a little too dark so I added the leaves with white card stock that I inked a bit with purple and some more flowers cut from tulle.




Heartfelt creations - Open Vintage Floret stamps and dies
Spellbinders - Curved Rectangles die
Paper Smooches - Happy birthday sentiment stamp set
Liquid Pearls - Lemon Yellow



Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today and say Hi,

Connie

Your 'lightening up' elements worked perfectly! Beautiful card!

Ooops! It happens...all of my July cards were a bit late....all of them lol I like that background paper and your pretty posies with the yellow centers. Yes, I agree the lighter leaf die cuts look great and lighten everything up!

Gorgeous layered flowers Connie... love the vines on the flowers, the liquid pearl in the middle... and the delicate tulle... perfect texture! I am sure you are forgiven my friend for forgetting one birthday! :)

So beautiful, Connie! I love the way HC stamps and dies combine. I missed a birthday this month and sent a text instead. Not okay. My mind is on too many things!

Wow, Connie, those flowers are just gorgeous. These days it is not hard to miss a birthday. So much going on that it is hard to keep focused, at least, that is how it is for me.
