Female Birthday Cards

 Today I am sharing the birthday cards I made recently for my sister
 and two of my friends.

The same style card, in different colourways.

I used this beautiful 3D Lisa Horton embossing folder to emboss a square
of white card. I just love how deeply embossed the peonies are!

I then matt and layered it onto the coloured card, and glued it onto the base card.
Next, I die cut the ribbon die, glued it onto the embossed square, and
added the sentiment.
 I finished the card by adding the pearlised and diamante gems.

The products I have used are:

Lisa Horton Crafts 3D embossing folder - Blooming Peony

Presscut - Happy Birthday

Ribbon die - brand unknown

Get Well Card

My niece recently went into hospital for an operation, and this is the
card I made for her.

 
After embossing a small piece of white card with the 3D folder, I mat and
layered it onto pink card and glued it directly onto the card base.

I then stamped the sentiment, added the punched daisy and leaves,
then finished by adding the diamante gems.
