CC1034 Birthday Blooms
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: DCinkit

 This is my sample for the Color Challenge hosted by Karen. The first one for 2025. Happy New Year! Her lovely colors are: Petal Pink, Soft Seafoam, Pool Party and the dessert option is add a 4th color.

My card is for an upcoming birthday, so I used carnation flowers for the January birth month flower. Although it is a two-step stamp set, I only used the filler stamps for the stem/leaves and flower head. I thought it was a softer look. Then I stamped some speckle in Pool Party.

I pulled out a long strip of Petal Pink cardstock. It was torn at the bottom, so I kept it that way. The strip was dry embossed and the torn edge sponged. I trimmed the flower panel and used a distressing tool on the bottom edge & sponged it. Put the panels together and wrapped two ribbons around. The diagonal trim fit perfectly over the crinkle ribbon. Attached the whole piece to the card base. I stamped a vertical Happy Birthday in Pecan Pie. It is a 4th color, but also an approved neutral, so I have a light dessert. Thanks for looking.

We hope you will consider using these beautiful colors and sharing what you create!

I remember when torn edges were all the rage, and they still look nice and add great texture too! Actually, there is lots of pretty texture on this Beauty, Diane! I Love the softness of your blooms and leaves, and the speckles add a nice touch~

I love your vertical sentiment on this soft and lovely floral arrangement and I love how you got the pool party in with the ribbon too. A lovely creation!

Beautiful carnations on this lovely birthday card, Diane. I especially like the pop of Pool Party in the ribbon and the matching splatters on the white panel. The vertical greeting is different and fresh!

Awesome! The EF in the BG, the torn edges, and the vertical sentiment add dimension to the softness of the design. The stamping is beautiful...

Beautiful with the pastel colors. Like the design of the carnations and texture of the vertical panel. The ribbon finishes it nicely.

Diane, this is a lovely January birthday card (or any other month too). I love your flower colors, embossing, and how you used the colors. Your friend will love this. Hugz
