Today is my friend's birthday and we will be joining her and her husband and another couple to celebrate the occasion over a meal. I will be giving her this card, however it is not the one that I made for her originally as that one has mysteriously disappeared! It must be somewhere hiding in plain sight but I can't find it... if it does reappear it will have to do for next year as I did put her name on it!
For this one I used the foliage, circle and tag die cuts by Alexandra Renke, colouring the leaves with a couple of shades of Distress Oxide inks and then stamping some splatters with one of the colours. The 'happy' is from The Greetery and the 'birthday' from Create a Smile. Both are stacked a few times.
The three ladies concerned in this celebration (Ladies who lunch) will be spending a day closer to Christmas meeting alpacas and doing a wreath making workshop, it's our gift to the birthday girl and should be great fun... but first to celebrate this evening!
This is gorgeous! Love the simplicity of it, but it is still bold and beautiful! If you find the other card, you can give it to her for her "6 month" birthday, LOL! Thanks for playing with our CAS challenge this week!
ReplyDeleteChrissie, another gorgeous creation. I love the soothing colors and the sentiment in white is perfect. So glad you joined us at The Paper Players this week

I seem to have missed a couple of your amazing posts in the last few days, but I have had a look and enjoyed them immensely, as I always do when I see your cards. How truly annoying that you lost a card when it was all ready. It is bound to turn up when you are not looking for it. Your replacement card is brilliant though, love the little circle detail and the tag and ribbon xx
