Floral Birthday Basket

Hi, crafty friends! It’s Leica here. Today, I have a lovely birthday card using the Floral Corners stamp set that I just can’t seem to put away and the Easter Basket Dies that is perfect not only for Easter but year-round. 

To start, I cut a panel in white cardstock using the Stitched Notes Dies. Using the Wide Stripes stencil, I then ink blended the panel in Milled Lavender distress oxide. For added interest, I splattered with black and gold acrylic paint. 

Next, I stamped, colored, and cut the flowers from the Floral Corners stamp set. I used Copic Sketch markers in B38/34/32/0000, Y13, YG67/63/61, and RV69/66/63. I then cut the Easter Basket in light gray cardstock. 

The sentiment is from the Let’s Party stamp set. I white heat embossed it on black cardstock that I cut using the Simple Strips Dies. 

I then adhered the panel onto the card base and also adhered the basket onto the panel. The flowers are foam mounted for dimension. Next, I glued the sentiment onto the basket. It wouldn’t be a Pretty Pink Posh card without any jewels, so I added some Sparkling Clear Jewels here and there for added interest and texture to the card. 

That’s all, folks! I hope you enjoyed today’s card share. The Easter Basket die is super cute and great for any occasion. You can add flowers, critters, or maybe make a basket-shaped tag or a mini card with it. How about making it into a hot air balloon?! The possibilities are endless! 

Thank you for stopping by today!
