Thank you for visiting - I trust you feel welcome here in my corner of blogdom.
Today I am sharing a birthday card - I am happy with it, and it was easy to make as it basically did what I had planned - not all my cards do that!

My starting point was the dp - it was a scrap left over from another card from a sheet off the Kaiser Miss Nelly stack. The blue base card matches the blue in the stripes perfectly. I then made my own dp for the top panel using an old stamp (one of my originals) which I have no idea where it has come from as it is unmarked.
This is a close up of it - it is a beautifully detailed rose.
The sentiment was stamped in the same blue ink and cut using the 3rd largest Floral Oval SB die. I sponged the card before removing the die.
After assembling the card base I added the adhesive ribbon and then the diecut, added some clear rhinestones and the layered flowers.
As a final detail I decorated the inside with a scrap of the dp and a couple of roses stamped off the edge.

Such a darling birthday card. And way to go using up the scraps. I tend to leave them laying around the desk, instead of being creative and using them up. Thanks for inspiring me to do better!! Thanks for joining the DRS Designs challenge this week!
