Post 227: CAS Birthday Card

Hi friends :)

I'd like to share a Clean and Simple Birthday Card today. This is a standard A2 sized top folding card. I seem to need tons of birthday cards so it is always a good idea to make a few extras :) 

Essentially, the background is done by sponging inks through a hexagon stencil. The flower was die cut twice in black and white and adhered slightly off set for a shadowy effect. The smaller negative pieces from the die cut were also lightly colored with distress oxide inks and adhered back into the design. The bee and sentiment were stamped and in the end a few clear drops were added.

List of Supplies:

Paper Smooches Dainty Flowers Dies 

Paper Smooches Stamp: We Adore You (sentiment)

Paper Smooches Stamp: Garden Greetings (bee)

Lawn Fawn Small Dotted Rectangle Die
