One of my ladies that comes to workshop and has become a good family friend celebrated her birthday this week (as did my wonderful husband). Here is the card and gift pack I made for her.
Her favourite colours are Red, Orange, Yellow & Black, so keeping that in mind, I made a simple tri-shutter card using Core'dinations Poinsettia card as the base and decorated with Prima Marketing "one-up" paper.
To make the flowers, I have used two different tones of Mulberry Paper which are layered together and then cut with either a scallop circle die or a flower die depending on the look you want to achieve. Attach all the layers together with a brad through the centre and then scrunch each of that layers to create a fluffy flower.
This would have to be one of my favourite quote stamps I own. Produced by Stampendous, it stamps beautifully every time in all different ink mediums. The butterfly is a Cheery Lynn die and the flourish is by Die-namics.
For those that don't know, I also own
Candles For Your Senses. I make soy candles, melts and other home fragrance items. So to finish off the gift basket, I added a special candle and a new addition to my product range - some Room Spray. I say this candle is special as it is a one off piece. The words have been cut in vinyl using the Silhouette Cameo and adhered to the jar once the candle was set and cool.
I am very pleased to say she was super excited when she opened the box to all here goodies.
Till next time
Happy Crafting
