Spring Bouquet
by Kathy Berger
I am fortunate to have a couple of young women (beside my own daughter) who are very special to me. One of these is my daughter's childhood best friend, who turns 29 today. This is the card I made for her birthday.
I die cut and colored all of the flowers and blossoms from this month's release and the previously released Lovely Leafage. Next, I turned each of them over onto a mouse pad (right side down), lightly spritzed each with water, and shaped each petal and leaf with a ball stylus, adding curved dimension to each. I also pushed some of the cut petals of the lilac forward to add more interest to the bloom's head.
I cut out the template, assembled it, and decorated the box and uprights. Finally, while taking care that the flowers and foliage wouldn't get in the way of the uprights' movement, I adhered the flowers and bow to the uprights and the Happy Birthday label to the box front.
I hope she likes the card!
