Birthday Apothecary

The last card from the weekend! Last minute Lucy that I am came up with this one Sunday morning for afternoon club :) I can't help it, really, I've tried!!


I love how this one came out!! I've wanted to use this set for Club but kept deciding not to because of the time it takes to color with a group. I decided to use this image which is less coloring than the rose one in the same set. Colors are Baja Breeze, So Saffron & Certainly Celery. I did prestamp the image and run it through the Big Shot with the Labels Framelit. Not that the Girls can't do it, I just don't like to drag along the Big Shot unless I really have to!! The image was stamped with Black Stazon. The "Happiest Birthday" is a separate stamp. We colored directly with markers which is not something I usually like to do, but these colors are so soft its perfect that way! The center of the flowers is So Saffron, the petals are Baja Breeze, and the leaves and stems are Certainly Celery. The card base is Baja; the background So Saffron that was textured with the Finial Press embossing folder. Across the center in Certainly Celery satin ribbon. The flower image is attached to the Baja layer with Snail, then attached to the background with dimensionals to sit over the ribbon. Makes me happy, how about you??
