Female Birthday Card

I recently attended an all day card-making work shop run by two crafting friends. 
It's a popular, fun day to attend, where we make approximately 10 cards,
chat and craft in between eating home made cake and lunch!

Today I am sharing one of the cards I made, which I gave to my
next door neighbour for her birthday.
We used Distress inks and the negative of the leaf die to create the background panel. 
Then we stamped leaves randomly across the panel.
Next, after colouring in the die-cut leaf, I matt and layered the panel, 
stamped the sentiment and added two leaves punched from inked paper which 
were supplied to us.

The products I have used are:-
Stampendous Jumbo Leaf stamp and die
Sentiment stamp - Brand unknown
Challenges entered:-
Allsorts Challenge - Blossoms, Butterflies, Bugs
Brown Sugar - Spring or Fall
Moving Along with the Times - That Spring Feeling
Seize the Birthday - Anything Goes
Moo Mania and More - Spring Fever

Thank you for visiting today.
