Wish Big.....

Wish Big.....
Made this birthday card for my colleague whom I promised earlier. Her birthday is on this Thursday.

Retrosketches #149
I adopt the simple sketch from Retrosketches #149 as shown above as I want to make a quick and simple card.

Close-up: Flower background
First, I stamp the flower repetitively onto a white card stock in pink so that it would be the background or own made pattern paper. Then, I purposely made a tear to the upper left corner as the sketch inspired me to have such idea! Then, the flower background is attached onto a pink card stock.

Close-up: Scalloped square tag
A rounded corners yellow square is stamped with the sentiment and attached with foam tape onto a green scalloped square die cut. At the left corner slit of the green scalloped square die cut, a gold ribbon is tied to it as in the sketch. Then, it is attached onto the pink card base using foam tape as in the sketch.

Dimension : 10.16cm x 15.24cm or 4" x 6"
Type : Vertical fold
Inlay : None

This card is entering the challenge(s) organized by :
