Birthday Bouquet



Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Colleen has chosen make it a bouquet as the theme.
There are loads of gorgeous floral cards to inspire you on the blog and our guest is Lynda, from Loopy Lou.

You can always play along with our anything goes birthday option too, it's a great way to build up your birthday stash!

I have a few floral stamps but rarely use them! Need to practice my colouring more lol.
I've gone with an older diecut and used distress inks for the stems and alcohol inks on glossy card for the flowers.

I'm linking up to these challenges:
AAA Birthday, congrats on your 2nd birthday!

Cuttlebug Mania, flower power

Mix it up Challenge Blog, anything goes and I've gone with the layering option this time.

Supplies:
Memory Box bella bouquet die; Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle die; peeled paint distress ink; glossy card and alcohol inks; Sizzix summer fun embossing folder; sentiment sticker.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x
