60th Birthday Card

Since we abandoned our long weekend plans to go camping due to rain, I have some time on my hands to post some of the cards I've made since my last update. This is a card that I made for my sister's birthday in April. I can't claim any creative rights as it is basically a direct CASE of this card I found on Jan's Creative Corner, and it uses one of my favourite framelits sets (ever!) Botanical Builders. I am happy to confirm that this set and coordinating stamps have carried over to the new 2016-2017 Stampin' Up Annual Catalogue. Other supplies are listed below (the patterned vellum and black & white DSP are both retired).

Botanical Blooms Birthday

So I bet you can't guess what my favourite product suite from the new Occasions Catalogue is? Yep, it's Botanical Gardens. I especially love the framelits. I was finding the colours of the DSP a little challenging to work with so went back to an old favourite - Melon Mambo. I made this for The Challenge #55 (a sketch) at Always Playing With Paper. It didn't quite come together as I had pictured but it has some of the components - I think I might have been closer if I had used a different sized card (maybe square?). I used a piece if the Botanical Gardens designer vellum which is one of the SAB choices - designed to coordinate with the Botanical Gardens DSP but it's great on it's own.
