Two Birthday Cards with Simon Says Stamp "Spring Flower Burst"

Hello and welcome!

I made 2 card using the "Spring Flower Burst" stamped die set from Simon Says Stamp.

This first birthday card was made with white embossing and Zig Clean Color markers.

I actually made a huge mistake because I stamped the image in black ink and then I thought I was grabbing my clear embossing powder but, alas, it was white!  So I had a white on white mess!  This was not how I intended this card to look at all, but in the long run I ended up with two cards instead of one!

I decided to salvage it by inking blending it with Distress Oxide inks.  I colored the flowers with zigs and the whole card just looked really weird so I took the die from the set and cut the floral stamped image out of the inked background and used it as a separate piece on this first card.  

The sentiment is from Your Next Stamp's "Photo Booth" heat embossed in white on black card stock.  

I added lots of Wink of Stella to the colored image but it's hard to see in the photos.

Here's another look:

Okay so now I have an inked panel with the image cut out, so here's how I used it to make a 2nd card.   I took that inked panel and inserted another of the same image that I had stamped on black and heat embossed in gold.  I put it right where I cut the other one out and taped it together on the back.  Next I cut the panel with a dotted rectangle die then popped it up on foam tape to the card base.

Here's that card:

I added more gold with a paint pen and then popped the sentiment from SSS "Beautiful Flowers" on foam tape.    Here's a closer look at the details:

And one last look at my 2nd card:

I hope you are staying safe and having time to spend with loved ones and hopefully get a little crafting it too.  I wish you all a happy and fulfilling week and pray that soon our world will get back to normal.  God Bless you all and thanks for stopping by!
