Wild Vines Birthday Card

I can't resist stamping these darling little flowers from Technique Tuesday's Wild Vines set! This simple little card seemed to perfectly fit the current challenge @ http://cutecardthursday.blogspot.com/ which is to "Make a Birthday Card - it's as simple as that". ;-) A new idea that came to me today was to run my flowers through my Wizard with my Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder! Just another way to add to our crafting fun!!! ;-) Don't mist them first, however, as it really flattens them out - I misted the smaller one, then had to curl the edges on it to "put some life back" into it's petals! Also used the D'vine Swirl folder on the flower pictured below!

Paper: DCWV's Pink #1 & white generic cardstocks
Stamps: Technique Tuesday's Wild Vines Set
Inks: Papertrey Ink's Custom Palette Hybrid Inks: Spring Moss, Berry Sorbet, Sweet Blush, Plum Pudding, Lavender Moon, Lemon Tart & Summer Sunrise
Tools: SU Ticket Punch
Embellishments: Rub-ons, Ribbon & Pearls from stash
