Oversized Postage Birthday

.... Hello again! Today I'm sharing a card I made for my aunt - it's actually her birthday today, so it's going to be a bit late. Here's the card:

Stamps: Waffle Flower - Sketched Aster, Oversized Postage, Postage Collage, Sweet Birthday Sentiments

Inks: Gina K - Sea Glass, Emerald Coast, Blue Sky, Dusty Rose, Innocent Pink, Petunia, Soft Stone; Versafine Clair - Nocturne

Dies: Waffle Flower - Oversized Postage, Rhombus Texture Die

Stencils: Waffle Flower - Sketched Aster

Accessories: White Card; Copic Markers

I created subtle texture on the A2 card background using a WF Rhombus Texture die. I used the Oversized Postage dies to cut out the stamp edge background and the top panel. I added a touch of green ink to the stamp edge. I used the Sketched Aster stencil to create the flower on the white panel. Once the flower was completed, I lightly inked over with matching colour to tone down the brilliant white. I added some postage marks in black ink and adhered the panel to the card. I finished the front with a circular special delivery stamp containing a cute birthday cake. I kept the inside very simple. I cut a piece of white card slightly smaller than A2, edged the panel with a green marker, stamped a bold birthday greeting in black ink and added the sketched aster in soft grey ink.

I'm submitting this card to:

AAA Colourful - AAAC#27 - love these colours

Addicted to CAS - ATCAS#306 where the theme is Postage

Stencil Fun Challenge - SFC#0426 - where it's always anything goes with stencils, the option is rainbow colours - which I skipped

 

 

I need to make a few more cards today and tomorrow. One for my hubby as it's our 25th Wedding Anniversary on Wednesday - and I can't believe how fast the time has gone. And one for my sister-in-law, who has a birthday at the end of the month. That's it for now. See you again soon.
