Spring Birthday Card | By Sandhya Iyer

Hello, friends! This is Design Team member Sandhya Iyer and today I am sharing a spring-themed birthday card where I mix up a bunch of fun products. The star of the show is the foiled sentiment from the Sugar Script Sentiments 2 hot foiled plate and die set. I also used the Wiegela Leaf Contour Layers Die Set and the Gentle Flower and Leaves Contour Layers for the flowers and leaves.

I started by using Distress Mica Stain and Distress Spray stains in different shades of green to create a few ink-smooshed panels. Then, I used the Wiegela Leaf die to cut out several leaves to build my wreath. Next, I used Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide to ink blend an ombre background. I traced a circle on this panel and adhered the leaves to form a wreath.

Next, I grabbed the Sunrise and Blush solid core cardstock packs and die cut a couple of flowers using the Gentle Flower die set. I colored in the center with a brown copic marker for additional contrast. I also kept the extra pieces of colorful centers to tuck under the leaves. I used gold foil and my Glimmer machine to create my birthday sentiment and added it to the center of the wreath using some foam tape.

Finally, tucked in the flowers and little centres that look like buds/berries. I attached the completed panel to a white card base and finished with a few clear drop embellishments. This brings us to the end of today’s post. Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you have fun crafting today!
