Fuchsia Happy Birthday


 I dug out this Hero Arts stamp set to make a birthday card for a dear friend and found myself making many, many of these flowers today. I stink at getting layering stamps right in less than 100 tries, especially older ones. It took me a long time to get them right. I used a regular and Mini MISTI and made a little assembly line to make multiple images of these flowers in 4 stampings to die cut and tuck away in the storage envelope for future use. I love this plant, and it has special meaning for my birthday friend and me.

You are one smart cookie my friend to ink up several of these blooms at one time when they are lined up so perfectly! I love your colors and another beautiful background that you embossed too! Lovely, lovely card Stephanie!! Hugs. :0)

They are perfectly colored and lined up...but I get the struggle. What a pretty, pretty card, Stephanie! The vivid colors are what makes this card as wonderful as it is and we are so glad you joined our challenge at JUGS this week!
