Hello Stampers!  I made a card using the sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches.  

For my card I started by die cutting a bunch of flowers and leaves and assembling them.  I wasn't sure how I was going to arrange them so I played around until I decided on the floral layout.  Then I die cut the sentiment "Wishing."  I wanted to put the sentiment "you a Happy Birthday" but the label die was too long.  So I stamped the sentiment, die cut it, and then moved the sentiment over a bit and die cut the label on one side again to shorten it and it fit!  I had everything layed out on the kraft card panel, and I felt like it needed some texture.  So I found the basket weave die and ran it through the die cut machine.  I liked the look, so I adhered the flowers and sentiment to the kraft panel.  I also found these white gems by Honey Bee in my pile of embellishments and thought they would be a fun addition to add some sparkle.  To finish the card I adhered the kraft panel to a white card base.  For the inside, I stamped a few flowers and a sentiment.  

That's all for now!  Thanks so much for stopping by!
