Happy Birthday with Layers of Beauty

Inspiration for my card this week comes from the the Hand Stamped Sentiments Inspiration Challenge. I was inspired by the flowers and the pink color palette. I used the Layers of Beauty Bundle to create this birthday card. I used a blending brush and the colors of Bubble Bath, Petunia Pop and Berry Burst for the roses. I started with the lightest color first the proceeded with Bubble Bath and finally Berry Burst. The leaves I used a Olive Garden very lightly the used it again but darker wit the last mask. The roses I die cut then adhered GOLD 1-1/2″ (3.8 CM) OPEN WEAVE TRIM behind it over a layer embossed with Birch Wood 3D Embossing folder. I finished with gold metallic butterflies.

Here is the challenge inspiration image. See more inspiration at Hand Stamped Sentiments.

Stampin’ Up Melon Mambo Layers of Beauty Birthday Card

This week’s challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments is an Inspiration Challenge. I created this birthday card with the Layers of Beauty bundle. This bundle contains the Layers of Beauty stamp set, coordinating dies and masks.

I stamped the roses image with Melon Mambo, then used Pretty and Pink and Berry Burst to color the roses using the masks and blending brush. After coloring the roses image I die cut the image adhered to a layer embossed with the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. The sentiment is stamped with ‘Happy Birthday’ stamp from the Country Birdhouse stamp set then die cut with tag die and embellished with linen thread clear rhinestones colored with Stampin’ Up Melon Mambo dark Blending Pen.
