Happy Birthday for DD#56 and CCMC255

I just wanted to pop in quickly today with a card I made with the pretty colors at Dynamic Duos and the lovely sketch at Create With Connie and Mary.




As I was putting this together it occurred to me that vellum might look nice on my card so I layered it over the Soft Suede cardstock.  I stamped the leaves on it and at first they looked quite splotchy so I ended up going over it with a marker.  I adhered it with the stamped image facing down so that it has a little softer look.

I was on a roll last night in my stamp room and actually managed to make three cards!   I needed to get a jump start on things for the week ahead because in a couple of hours I'm headed over to my nephew's graduation party and I'll be gone all day.  I'm bringing the sangria, YUM!

Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies:
Stamps:  Raining Flowers, Summer Silhouettes, Itty Bitty Banners
Accessories:  Bitty Banners die, Dimensionals
