3D Sending Flowers Birthday Card

Hello again!  Today I am super excited to share this 3D birthday card that really reminds me of Spring, even though that is still months away.  I think it would be perfect to send to your mom, your sister, or anyone you know who loves flowers and could use a little "spring" in her life.  Here's the scoop on how I created this cute card:

List of Ingredients:

Stamps:  Thoughtful Blooms, Timeless Tulips, Timeless Tropical

Ink:  Melon Mambo, Coastal Cabana, Highland Heather

Cardstock:  Melon Mambo, Whisper White, Brights DSP (Coastal Cabana gingham print), Coastal Cabana, Highland Heather, Daffodil Delight

Accessories:  Sending Flowers dies, Light and Dark Granny Apple Green Stampin Blends, Pearl Basic Jewels,Tombow liquid adhesive, Stampin' Dimensionals, Whisper White envelope

Dimensions:

Card base:  4 1/4" x 11 ", scored at 5 1/2" – Melon Mambo

Inside of card:  5 1/4" x 4"  -  Whisper White

First layer:  5 1/4" x 4" – Gingham check DSP (Brights collection, Coastal Cabana)

Second layer:  Whisper White thick

Scrap: Melon Mambo, Coastal Cabana, Highland Heather, Daffodil Delight

Basic Instructions:

1.  Cut and fold card base. 

2.  Stamp flowers and stems from Thoughtful Blooms stamp sent on bottom right and left of Whisper White inside layer.  Stamp birthday sentiment from Timeless Tulips stamp set in upper center.  Adhere to inside of card base.

3.  Cut Sending Flowers circle die from the thick Whisper White piece, centered slightly above the middle of the card. 

4.  Using Stampin Blends, color the stems and leaves of the flowers from the die cut piece.  Using the small flower dies from the Sending Flowers die set, cut several sets from each of the scrap pieces (Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo, Coastal Cabana and Highland Heather).  Adhere as desired to the flowers on the die cut piece.  Add a Pearl Basic jewel to the center of each flower.

5.  Stamp the "happy birthday" sentiment from the Timeless Tulips stamp set below the die cut image centered on the page.

6.  Adhere the DSP layer to the card front.  Attach Stampin' Dimensionals to the back of the die cut piece and adhere to the DSP layer, lining it up so edges all align.  Using your fingernail or Take Your Pick tool, gently raise the cut-out scallops around the die cut piece to add texture to the card front.

7.  Stamp flowers and stems from Thoughtful Blooms stamp sent on bottom right and left of front of Whisper White envelope.
