The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Highland Heather card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.
I cut a 4-3/8" x 3-1/8" piece of Gorgeous Grape card stock for the layer of the Designer Series Paper (DSP). The DSP is from the "Paper Medley" 12" x 12" package. I taped it to the Gorgeous Grape layer and that was taped to the front of the card. I centered it as much as I could by eyeing it.
The watering can and the greenery on the sides, plus the purple flower is from the "Easter Time" mix & match ephemera package. I ran across this package that was hardly used and thought I should make a card using it.
I also had the package of "Softest Spring Mix & Match" puffy stickers and when I ran across this card on Pinterest I was thrilled to see that I could use both on one card. I added the two butterflies. I only had one small one so I used a large one. It's still pretty. There's a puffy heart on the watering can and one pink flower to the right.
This was a very quick and easy card to make and I was glad I was able to use more from those packages.
The words were done on my computer a while ago. I ran across those too. There's a little baggie that has quite a few of them in it. I cut a 2" x 5/8" piece of Gorgeous Grape card stock for the layer. The corners were rounded and the words were added. I taped the words to the layer and it was glued in place on the front of the card. I had added the glue to the watering can so I knew exactly where it was so I could put the words on nicely.
This was a super quick and easy card to make. As I look at it I think it would have looked better if I would have textured the front of the Highland Heather card.
Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's birthday card,
Wanda
This is a very sweet birthday card. I like the ephemera you chose for it. It's nice to have supplies like that on hand, isn't it? I love it when I can make a quick card that I actually like!
