Purple birthday wishes...
September 19, 2014
A coworker of mine is celebrating her birthday on Saturday so I thought I would make a card to give with her gift. She loves purple so I wanted to add as much of that as I could but did not want to have it overwhelm all the other colors. I CASEd this card from Pinterest and of course, when I went back to find it, I couldn’t. So my apologies to the maker of the original card and the fact that I cannot reference it on my blog. The original card had seven panels and no twine or button.
I started off using a variety of inks and the “swooshey” (I really don’t know what to call it) stamp from the SU! for all things stamp set. I wanted to create the background for these little panels rather than using DSP. I broke out my retired SU! confetti stamp set and some memento black ink to stamp on the different colors. I was really pleased at how well these turned out. They do look like designer paper!
I dug out my two square punches and punched out my black squares and the handmade DSP. After I glued all my panels down and had the twine and button on, the card seemed a little dull. So out came the rhinestones to finish it off. I am hoping that she likes the card and enjoys the gift and cake tomorrow!
Enjoy!
