Spring has arrived in my craft room. This is the second day in a row I have made a spring floral birthday card. Don't we all love flowers and embellishments?
I am playing with Cardz 4 Galz challenge #244: Embellishments. Thanks to them for picking my card as the spotlight winner in the last challenge.
Today's card:
I used a yellow floral vellum from the Floral Delight Suite as the background.. I attached the vellum to a piece of white card stock so it would show better on the Daffodil Delight card base. Strips of green stripe across the bottom and top give me a place to anchor the vellum to the white card stock. The flower is a Memory Box die. I cut a green one and then a yellow one and paper pieced the yellow on top. I shaded the flowers to make them stand out. I put mini dimensionals behind the two larger flowers and glued the stems in place The sentiment is an old one rom SU! I backed it with a strip of yellow print and the green stripe.
I finished it off with 3 iridescent gems above the middle flower. They don't show up much in the photo but IRL the really glisten.

This is such a pretty card. I love the way you put one flower stem behind and one in front of the banners. It's little touches like that that make a card special.
