SIMON SAYS STAMP FLORAL GARDEN BIRTHDAY CARD

Wednesday, April 7, 2021








I made three tags in December for Christmas cards that I never used.  I have a bunch of birthdays in May and June and decided to use them.  The tags were made out of Neenah solar white 110 lbs using Graphic45 tag die.  I then used distress oxide spray with metallic on all of the cards.

I then stamped with Simon Says Stamp Floral Garden stamp in black Versafine ink using the Misti.  When the stamp dried I used Polychromos pencils  to slightly color in some of the flowers and leaves.  I also used a white Gelly roll pen to add some white highlights to some of the flowers.  When I was done I decided the card needed a little sparkle so I sprayed with Perfect Pearls over the whole card.  I did have to blot the image as the distress inks are reactive with water but I love the way the Pearls just give a little something extra!  




When looking though my sequins and embellies I bound this little jewel with a tiny hummingbird.  I have had these for years (only a few have hummers and the rest have designs) and have NO idea where I got them or who made them but it was just perfect for this card.  I die cut Simon Says stamp Brush Script wafer die out of gold mirror cardstock and the backing in heavy duty vellum.
