Happy Birthday to Susan and Susie

This is a card I made for a couple of friend's birthday's in the last couple weeks. I hope they liked them. I really like this Inspired by Nature set. I don't have any idea why I waited to long to get it. I guess because I have so many flowers and always say I'm not going to buy any more flowers... but I always do.

This card is done in Regal Rose, Old Olive and Chocolate Chip. I inked the stamp sing markers and then spritzed the stamp a few times to make it watercolor-like. The Happy Birthday is from the All Holidays set and is stamped in Chocolate Chip ink. I used the Color Spritzer Tool with the Chocolate Chip marker to add the soft faded splatter background.

The designer paper on the background layer is from the Walk In the Park collection and the green layer is punched with the Scallop Edge punch. Lastly I tied some narrow grosgrain Chocolate Chip ribbon around the bottom half and added a Chocolate Chip corduroy button with some linen thread tied on.

Ink: Chocolate Chip
Cardstock: Chocolate Chip, Regal Rose, Shimmery White
Accessories: Walk in the Park DSP, Color Spritzer Tool, Regal Rose, Old Olive and Chocolate Chip markers, Scallop Edge punch, Narrow Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon, Linen Thread and Chocolate Corduroy Button
