2nd card from the Julie Hickey Workshop

Today, I am sharing the second card I made last month at the Julie Hickey workshop.
You can find my first card HERE

Unfortunately, I don't know the name of the paper pack Julie supplied us with,

but the layout she used on her card as an example, is a great way to use 

up scraps of paper.

Julie provided everyone with an envelope of nine squares, plus a topper and

spare paper to cut various shapes out of. We were then left to use them as we wanted.

I inked the edges of the squares with distress ink and glued them to the card base.

I then attached the topper at an angle, using 3D foam pads and the 

flower and butterflies.

I forgot a friend's birthday, so I sent it to her as a belated birthday card.

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
