Best Birthday Ever for Wild Orchid Crafts

* This is my second post of the day...for the DL.ART May Linky post, click HERE *

Happy Monday!! It's my turn to post on the Wild Orchid Crafts blog and I'd love for you to stop by and say hi if you have time :) I have a couple of birthday cards to share with you using a variety of Wild Orchid Crafts flowers and embellishments.


For these cards, I used cottage roses in two sizes, trellis roses, open roses in two sizes, and rosebuds. The papers are from Kaisercraft.


I also used WOC leaves in two sizes, natural skeleton leaves, pearl sprays, self-adhesive pearls and Siam Pink vintage seam binding. A Spellbinders Decorative Elements Oval was used to frame the Tattered Lace Lamp Post.


Some close-ups:




I am entering these in the following challenges:

1) Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes
2) Dies R Us Challenge #72 - Flowers
3) Word Art Wednesday - Anything Goes
4) Jo's Scrap Shack Funday Friday - Anything Goes


Wild Orchid Crafts Products Used:

White Sissal

Thanks so much for stopping by!!
Have a great day :)

    Stunning stunning stunning! This is a little piece of spring that has exploded into my room, what a wonderful pick me up! Your papers are just delicious, all those luscious pinks and lovely florals, wow! That frame is so intricate and fancy, what a difficult piece it must have been to work with, but oh so worth it! Your flower arrangement with ribbon is just as amazing as always, and I adore the sheer banner for the sentiment, but my favourite bit is the scene in your frame! Those little birdies perched on the lamp have stolen my heart! I can almost hear the chirping and singing as they tip toe up and down the post. What a beautiful image you put together for your focal piece! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! hugs :)
