Happy Birthday

I'm so happy to be sending the happiest birthday wishes today to Nancy. Loll is hosting a birthday party for her and I hope you can join the party.

I hope your day is wonderful, Nancy, and you enjoy the party. Wish I could be there in person with cake and ice cream. But here is a card instead.

I used Stampin' Up Lotus Blossom two step stamp for Nancy's card. The first stamping was done with Versamark, then dusted with gold Perfect Pearls. The second stamping was in Versamark and that takes away part of the Perfect Pearls and gives more dimension to the blossom. The Happy Birthday is die cut in gold and the navy panel is added to gold cardstock.






Be kind to one another.

Beautiful and oh so elegant. The blue and gold look awesome together. You would be even more impressed with my friend when I tell you that she will be 76 yrs old next May and is very much a Joan collins diva. Hugs Mrs A.

Brenda said...

Happy birthday to Nancy! Wow Brenda, your card is gorgeous!!! I am so loving the way you did your lotus flower. So you stamped with an embossing ink and dusted the perfect pearls on top of it and then stamped again with embossing ink to lift some of the perfect pearls off??? It sure gives a beautiful look as I thought it was embossed in antique gold until I kept reading! It is stunning on the blue background and then the gold background. You are getting so good at these techniques! Hugs, Brenda
