Primary Colors Card

Here's a cheerful card with primary colors.
The central flower was made of folded patterned paper - the same pattern used for the background - punched out with a scalloped circle punch. Each petal was folded 4 times.

After folding all the petals I glued them to each other.

I stamped Michael Strong's Cloisonné Flower stamp with Stazon ink on textured red CS for the center, and on a piece of transparency (clear acetate sheet) separately, and carefully cut them with nail scissors.
The whole flower was glued 3D for extra dimension on bright yellow textured CS.

I also used red and white CS punched with Martha Stewart's border punch, and a few brads.
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed. Have a creative day! Dorly

A Bouquet Of Flowers

I made this card for someone I love. The colours remind me of Christmas, but flowers are always fun to get.

The Pot and the flowers were glued 3D to give the card extra dimension.
I used red CS, pearly green textured CS, Michael Strong's Cloisonné Pot rubber stamp - heat embossed with white embossing powder over chocolate brown CS, brown and white papers die cut in the Cuttlebug, and green paper for the leaves cut freely with scissors. Then I added red silk flowers with tiny square green brads and a few clear blings at the corners. I used a white gel pen for the faux stitches.

It's a piece of cake... for my birthday!

Tomorrow, April 1st, is my birthday. Seriously!
Please spare me the jokes, I've heard them all.

And here's my birthday cake - on a card I made for the Sweet 16 challenge at the Michael Strong Yahoo group.
It's a chocolate cake with whipped cream on top, chocolate decorations and pink candies. Yummy.

I used a textured light brown CS, a pearly textured pink CS, a dark brown CS,
white embossing powder, brown ink, my new Cloisonné Fan and Cloisonné Paisley MSRS,
pink pearls and a central decoration made of brown beads and sequins.

The Cloisonné Fan was stamped and heat embossed 4 times, then halved and glued, slice by slice, with 3D glue to add dimension.
The Cloisonné Paisley was stamped with brown ink and was also glued with 3D glue to add extra dimension.

Now I'm going to bake a delicious chocolate cake for my birthday - a real one :-)
