Harvest Nature Birthday card

Good morning, a tad warmer today I think at home.  I am keeping my fingers crossed that the watering system is working and that my plants are coping with the heat, yikes.  How is everyone else managing?  Mr. Weatherman said a chance of a storm later.  We have around 30degrees here but lots of air conditioning and a great breeze, so I can cope quite well.

Yesterday we had a trial of the make up and wow, love it.  My niece is a make up artist and works for the tv station in Cyprus.  She is extremely talented and I felt so special having this done.  She also did Katerinas and again, did a fantastic job of it. 

Today I have a few chores before venturing out later this afternoon.

I  wanted to share this birthday card I created with the Stampin’ Up! Natures Harvest stamp set.   I used Shimmery White card, which is sadly not available at the moment.  I stamped out the daisies directly onto the card with Stazon Ink.  I stamped the image again on a piece is smaller shimmery white card and cut out two of the larger flower heads.   With a blending brush and a soft blue ink  I coloured around the stamped images.  I got a little water on a paint brush and just flicked it onto the card and used kitchen roll to gently dab the water spots. The stamped card was then added to a Basic Black card base.  The sentiment from Charming Sentiments stamp set was heat embossed with white embossing powder and then die cut out using the Sentiment Silhoutte dies.  This was then added to the card with 3d foam pads/Dimensionals. The two large daisy heads were put on the card, again raised up with 3d foam/dimensions.  To finish the card off, I added 3 little clear dots.  I popped this in the post a couple of weeks ago and I do hope that the birthday girl received it. 

 Hope you like the card and wishing you a wonderful Sunday.  Thank you so much for having a read.  Tracey x
