Happy Birthday Poppy

This is another example where the art work on the paper is so beautiful, you do not want to cover it up with anything. I did add a strip of ribbon and a sentiment. You can easily leave off the sentiment and use it as an all-occasions card. What would you do? Any thoughts? 

Stamps:

   Art Gallery

Paper:

   Poppy Parade A-2

   Fine Art Floral DSP 5-1/4 x 4

   Bumblebee 3/4 x 3

   Basic White 1/2 x 2-3/4, 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Merry Merlot

Technique:

   Die Cutting

Accessories:

   Floral Gallery Dies

   Fine Art Ribbon - 6"

   Gold Brads

   Dimensionals

   Glue Dots

   Stampin' Seal+

   Adhesive

I took my panel and adhered my ribbon to the bottom portion. 

I then adhered the panel to my card base. You can change the card base to any color found on the Fine Art Floral panel, including white.

I then stamped my sentiment on basic white and die cut it.

I adhered it to a piece of Bumblebee cardstock, added a couple of brads, and used dimensionals to attach it to the card base.

Here is the same card, but with the sentiment separate from the ribbon. Which do you prefer?

 Create more backgrounds by adding ink to your embossing folder. I like the dramatic look and textured feel on this background. What do you think? 

Stamps:

   Art Gallery

Paper:

   Coastal Cabana A-2

   Whisper White 2-1/2 x 3 (2), 5-1/4 x 4 (2), Scrap

Ink:

   Coastal Cabana

   Gorgeous Grape

   Granny Apple Green

Technique:

   Dry Embossing

   Die Cutting

   Stamp-Off

   2-Step Stamping

Accessories:

   Painted Texture 3-D Embossing Folder

   Floral Gallery Dies

   Basic Rhinestone Jewels

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I applied my Granny Apple Green to the smooth side of the embossing folder. I dabbed a bit of Coastal Cabana on a bit of it, but I didn't want to mix my colors on my ink pads.

I carefully placed my Whisper White panel in the center of the embossing folder and ran it through my machine, making sure the white panel did not move. I did rinse and dry my embossing folder right after using it. 

Next, I stamped my flowers using Gorgeous Grape. I stamped-off once before adding the first step. The second step (accents) I added the ink at full strength. I die cut these using the Floral Gallery Dies. I attached the flowers to the top of the embossed panel using dimensionals.

I then used Coastal Cabana to stamp my sentiment on a scrap of Whisper White. I die cut it and attached it with dimensionals.

I added rhinestones to give the card a bit of glimmer.

Lastly, I adhered the embossed panel to the Coastal Cabana card base. The other Whisper White panel was added to the inside of the card.
