Here's another card you will get to make at my workshops this month. If you attend (or host) a two-card free party, you will get to make this card using the "Easter Blossoms" stamp set and "Springtime Vintage" Designer Series Paper, both from the Occasions Mini! The "birthday wishes" is from the Level 3 Hostess set, "Occasional Quotes", and after this card is complete you can spritz it with Vanilla Smooch Spritz for some added shimmer! I CASED this card from Kimbery Van Diepen, who CASED it from a sample Shelli Gardner showcased onstage at Leadership, so this card has a great heritage! There are actually two different ribbon versions of this card available, this one uses Crumb Cake Seam Binding with a Baja Breeze "Vintage Flower Adornment" from the Occasions Mini!

This version is identical to the first one, with the exception of using Marina Mist 3/8" Taffeta ribbon and a Very Vanilla "Vintage Flower Adornment"! The "Vintage Flower Adornments" come in a package of 24, 8 each of three colors: Very Vanilla, Baja Breeze, and Rose Red. At $5.95, these little beauties are economical and gorgeous! They remind me of the cream cheese mints that are often served at wedding receptions here in Southern Illinois, I have had to resist the urge to taste them! lol!

Here's the inside of both cards, but you will have to work hard to try to duplicate the smear I accomplished in my hast to finish up my card! ha! At the workshop you will have the choice of several great phrases from the "Herb Expressions" set that will be on the table for you to use! I punched my smeary phrase with the 2 3/8" Scallop Circle punch, then layered it on top of a 3/4" wide strip of "Springtime Vintage" Designer Paper. Seems like I always have lots of little pieces of Designer Paper scraps when I am working on a project, so adding just a little strip of my leftovers to the inside really helps bring the card together inside & out!
