Happy Mother's Day and CGI Challenge


This weeks theme for "Come and Get It Challenges" is Birthday as we are having a few birthdays with Design Team Members, ......I started out actually making the flowers first.  These flowers are handmade each petal is punched out and distressed with ink then put together ........adding a touch of sparkle on the main flower.

I added a doily for the background which I stippled a little blue color on it and then cut the "Happy Birthday" out on the Cri-cut at 1- 3/4 size then distressing the letters so they would show up just a tab better on the card.  So with that said I'd like to enter my card in a few challenges at ........Ellephantastic ,  One Stop Craft , Cards for men  and SSCC

Just a close-up of the flowers........I actually got a paint brush and painted on stickles to the edges of the petals, I'm having so much fun making these flowers!!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

    Shell, this card is stunning. The colours, the design and the image. Loved it huge! I also wanted to tell you how much I liked your Mother's day card. That expression is one of my favourites.
