Today's featured card is a Penny Black stamp named 'Florescence', which means 'bursting into flower'. I think that is a pretty cool name and perfect for this image. The buds look full and ready to pop open at any moment.
It's also the perfect birthday card for my friend Kathy, who's celebrating her special day today! She's such a lovely friend who can be a serious and quiet, not bothering anyone. Then BAM! She has everyone cracking up or has made the most amazing layered card you've ever seen and you're just gasping!
I had to come up with some sort of surprise for her card, but you know how hard it is to make cards for a great card maker! I knew she'd be expecting a Copic colored card because that's me, that's my style. So bravely, I did this in watercolors. Not the watercolor pens and add water - I did this with the watercolor paint pallet.
Behind the sentiment I secured the loopy string bow that Kathy taught me to make and added foam to the back of my sentiment strip (another Kathy tip). I used a lime green ink pad to ink around the edges and then secured the completed card front to the black card base.
I've learned so much from the friends I've met through crafting and the tips and tricks we've shared. You're a special lady Kathy and I treasure your friendship. Hope you have a fantastic birthday!
