Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend!

Today my project is based on two challenges. The color challenge from Hand Stamped Sentiments and the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches. I decided to use the flower from the Beautiful Day stamp.

And here is my card:

I heat embossed the flower with White EP and colored it with Light & Dark Rich Razzlebery and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends. I used ink from the lid of the Tranquil Tide and a Clear Wink of Stella for the leaf.

I created the Daffodil Delight Glimmer Paper by adding a strip of Tear n’ Tape to a strip of Daffodil Delight and added Dazzling Diamonds Glitter. I rubbed the glitter in as well as I could so it would stay in place.

The leaves in Tranquil Tide behind the flower were created with one of the thinlits from the Petals & More Thinlits.

I used my Stamparatus to ink the Happy Birthday with a Rich Razzleberry marker. The sentiment is longer than the framelit I used so I extended it by placing the cutting plate only in the area I wanted to cut. This is where I should be adding a video to show you what I mean….. I’m sure there might be one on YouTube.

The inside sentiment is from the Special Celebrations stamp set. Again I used the Stamparatus to get a clean image.
