Hello everyone hope you are having a fabulous Easter week-end so far. This will definitely be a bittersweet Easter for us. Our granddaughter-in-law and great-granddaughter leave on Easter morning to fly to New Hampshire to live as a family with our grandson that is stationed there. I am so very happy that they get to finally be a family with their own home, but so very sad as we will miss that great-grandbaby tremendously. We hope to make a trip to New Hampshire in the summer and visit them but meanwhile it will be rough adjusting without them here.
Well Monday is that granddaughter-in-law's birthday, so here is the card I made for her.
I created this card using the papers in the
CTMH Pemberley Kit, as I have said before the papers in this stack are beautiful. The wooden branch on the right is also from the
Pemberley Workshop Kit, I sprayed it with Glimmer Mist and added some pearls to the leaves. This card opens just half way across the front, you can see what I mean in this picture.
The happy birthday is stamped using
Indian Corn Blue with one of the stamps from the Celebration stamp set that comes in the
Art Philosophy Collection. Then using one of the stamps in the
Card Word Puzzle stamp set I lightly stamped flowers on the from yellow panel to make a background to match the flower paper. This stamp set is so versatile because you can make so many phrases just putting the words together.
The flower I cut also using the
Art Philosophy cartridge, sprayed it with Glimmer Mist and crumpled it up. Then I added a piece of crinkle ribbon across the front.
Inside I will stamp a verse. I like the way the branch still shows when you open the card so that the inside looks a bit dressed up.
Well thanks for stopping by to take a look, a very Happy Easter to you and your family.
