Happy Birthday Flowers! 

Today we are sharing a gorgeous floral Birthday Card by Ellen! She cut out the fun layered flowers using  Flower Trio Die Set. She cut the flowers out in shades of pink, layering them together and adding a sequins in the centers for sparkle. For the leaves she cut them from cardstock and then added color to the die cut shapes.

Here's a tip from her on how they were colored:
"I used my Copic Markers: for the brown I followed the curves with the markers E34 and E31. For the leaves I followed the grooves that the dies make when you cut them. I colored over these grooves with green YG05 and YG01."

She layered the flowers onto a panel of brown cardstock that was cut out using our Framework Die Set to give it a fun scalloped edge. She also added a fun woodgrain pattern to this panel using our Hardwood Stencil. She created a custom sentiment by cutting the word "happy" out using our Holiday Greetings Die Set and combining it with the word "birthday" stamped from our Newton Celebrates Stamp Set.

What a gorgeous combination of die cut images for a special Birthday creation!
