90th Birthday

This weeks challenge at JustRite Papercraft is to use a flower or butterfly stamp or die.  Well, that was an easy one!  I chose the petunia image from JustRite's Seeds of Summer set and stamped it with Memento Tuxedo Black onto blending card, coloured it with copics and die cut it with a Spellbinders Classic Ovals die.  The background paper is from First Edition's Dreamcatcher paper pad, layered onto pink cardstock.  I added some lace and pink ribbon down one side, then die cut some pink cardstock with the largest Spellbinders Opulent Ovals die, and then some lilac cardstock with a smaller die from the same set.  The image piece was added with foam tape and then a Zva pearl flourish.  My Mum had asked me to make a card for her friend's 90th birthday, so I die cut some lilac cardstock with the numbers from Cuttlebug's Baby Face die set, ran the numbers through my Xyron and stuck them to pink cardstock which had been die cut with the smallest Spellbinders Lacey Circles die.  Then I die cut lilac cardstock with a Spellbinders Standard Circle, added the number piece and then added that to the card front with foam tape.

Copic Colours used were:  V01, V12, V15, V17, RV00, RV02, RV13, YG11, YG13.

Thanks so much for coming to visit!
