Birthday Wishes

The theme this time at Creative Knockouts is Birthday wishes using this image sweet sunflower


This is a fun card, it is a mini easel card, instead of having the side pieces  sitting up like a stepper card they are glued down. There are tutorials on Pinterest and YouTube. seeing as the sunflowers are brown, yellow and green I thought I would carry on the the same colours I used yellow card for my base, green card for a contrast then a green gingham backing paper. white card was adhered across the bottom layer before gluing the sides down but because my base card was not  yellow both sides I could see what the white was going to look like (not nice) I made my bottom yellow I printed out the image with an extra one, I coloured it with copics then adhered it to the the original with 3D double sided foam Then adhered it all to the fold of the easel, the row of sunflowers I downloaded from the net did two put thin DS foam in between and adhered it to the card decided to put sending love instead of happy birthday for my sentiment I was going to put something on the side panels but it looked too much, so I left them plain. I then added clear gems in the two corners

Love

 For this challenge at creative knockouts is Love, Anniversary etc. and I got to pick the image we were to work with from the the paper shelter  I chose Autumn Love  

From my stash I found backing paper with black hearts on it I adhered it to black card, I put some black lace across it then a white cotton lace then adhered it to a white base. I coloured the image with copics adhered to black card then adhered it to the card I did it on an angle just for a change (am usually a straight girl) I die cut the flowers adding a red bead to them, the red hearts are also a die cut I put a little pearl on each of them, I don't know the names of the dies, then to add to the love thing the couple each had a dog
