Yesterday I shared a masculine birthday card made using my own custom background paper. Today I have a feminine version  using the same background.

The card base is an A6 portrait of Daffodil Delight, matted with Basic Gray and then with the Sassy Salutations background homemade paper (see technique here). After stamping the flower from Blooming with Kindness in Memento Black ink onto Whisper White card, it was coloured in with the Daffodil Delight Blendibilities, before fussy cutting out and then popping up on the card front. An Elegant Butterfly  was punched from Calypso Coral card and popped up on the card front with a dimensional. A matching butterfly from the Papillon Potpourri set was stamped in Versamark ink onto Vellum cardstock, heat embossed with Silver EP, punched out again with the Elegant Butterfly and adhered along the body of the original butterfly.

On the Whisper White insert, the sentiment from the same Blooming with Kindness set was stamped in Basic Gray and the flower from the front of the card was repeated, this time using Daffodil Delight ink.

I’ll be back soon with more details for how I coloured the flower with the Blendabilities.
