It's a birthday card that I've got today and I'm going to share it with the SUO Challenge as they've got the birthday theme as their current challenge. I made this one for one of my aunts birthdays and I thought the garden and bird theme fit her as she has a lovely yard that she works hard on.
I am having quite a fun time using the new Stampin' Up! Curvy Celebrations suite that will soon be available for customers. I had tucked this color combination away a while back and thought that it would work for this card.
I started with a Just Jade card base. I cut a piece of Whisper White with the Curvy dies and then embossed it with the Greenery embossing folder. I added a length of black satin ribbon before adhering it to the card front.
The flower boughs and bird were stamped in Memento black and colored with Stampin' Blends (colors listed below). I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and added them with dimensionals to the card front.
The sentiment is also stamped in Memento black and a few In Color enamel dots in Just Jade are sprinkled around.
Not a complicated, detailed design but I love how the colors pop and those curves are a fun addition to my general square and straight layouts!
Thanks for looking! Did you stamp today?
