Birthday card

For this birthday card I decided to mix and match my

Stampin' Up! with Mo's Digital Pencil image and a Sheena

embossing board!

I embossed the main card front using the embossing board

then using a strip of leftover gingham paper for the centre,

I added some strips of pink card.

I then stamped and white embossed the flowers from a set called

Darling Details, onto some of the pink card and die cut them out.

I then did the same for the leaves onto green card and cut them out.

The digi stamp was printed, coloured with markers and cut to fit

to one side of my card and I finished with sentiment

and name top and bottom and some gems.

I would like to enter this into

Happy Monday!

What a weekend of rain we had. It just never stopped!!

Hope you had better weather than us here in the North of Ireland.

Anyway I wanted to share my newsletter freebie funfold card.

It's called a springboard card as the little mechanisms are like springs

to make each part pop out.

Not a great photo but you can get the tutorial via my Newsletter.

It folds flat for posting too!

The papers are from the Glorious Gingham pack and the

ink colours are berry burst and lemon lime twist.
