My Happy Birthday Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Happy Birthday Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the cute Penelope Poppy. Poppies are one of my favourite flowers and since my birthday is this week, I decided to create a birthday card for me! Lol! I have used this digital stamp before and will include a link to my other card at the end of this post.

The Details of My Happy Birthday Card

For my card, I knew that I wanted to use the Poppy Decorative Background Metal Die by Paper Roses. I had brought it and some Paper Rose poppy paper in the summer. So, Penelope Poppy was perfect for these elements!

I love this sweet image by Conie Fong and had fun colouring it with my Copic markers to match the Poppy Garden Basics Paper Collection. Next, I used the Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen on the poppy centres and on her buttons and polka dots to add a bit of sparkle.

Since the die background was a little large, I decided to have it jut up from the card base itself. It gave the card visual interest while creating a focal point for my card. I used a scene from the paper pad to layer behind the die background. I love how the poppies from the paper peek out behind Penelope!

The sentiment was from the Tricycle Gnome and Sentiment Bundle. This Bundle comes with 5 sentiments. I used a Stitched Rectangle to die cut it out and added a Poppy Parade mat. The poppies behind it and the butterfly were from the Poppy Garden Embossed Die Cuts adding a beautiful gloss and dimension. The other embossed element was the “blossom” tag from the Poppy Garden Tags & Tickets Embossed Die Cuts by Paper Roses.

All that was left was to add some sparkle with a scattering of red rhinestones.
