Floral Wishes: Fresh Fruit Card Set Part Four

This sweet birthday card, the fourth card in our Fresh Fruit Card Set, uses the solid flower image to create a soft, floral look.

First cut all of your paper. You will need Peekaboo Peach, Whisper White, Flirty Flamingo, and Watercolor Paper.

Floral Wishes Birthday Card Measurements
	Color	Dimensions
Card Base	Peekaboo Peach	5-1/2” x 8-1/2”; scored at 4-1/4”
1st Mat	Flirty Flamingo	5-1/4” x 4”
2nd Mat	Watercolor	5” x 3-3/4”
Inside Mat	Whisper White	5-1/4” x 4”

The thank you sentiment area is masked first with a strip of sticky note 3/4" by 4". Cut your sticky note to at least 4" so some overhangs each edge. This helps secure your watercolor paper to your work surface.

Stamp the solid floral image with Flirty Flamingo across the watercolor paper. Stamp the small circle image with Peekaboo Peach ink in the center of each flower. Once the ink is dry remove the sticky note mask and stamp happy birthday with Basic Black Archival ink.

Let's make the faux bow underneath the sentiment. Cut a 6" piece of Flirty Flamingo Ruched Ribbon. Adhere the each ribbon end on the backside of the watercolor paper. Cut a 3" piece of Flirty Flamingo Ruched Ribbon. Tie a knot on the left side of the ribbon. Trim the excess ribbon. Adhere glue dots underneath the faux bow to secure in place.

Glue dots do not show as much through this ruched ribbon. I tried liquid glue first. The liquid glue will show through and stain the ribbon.

Adhere the watercolor paper to the Flirty Flamingo mat and then to the Peekaboo Peach card base.

On the inside of the card, I stamped the peach image in the lower right corner, leaving the rest blank for a personalized message. None of the On Stage samples showed the insides of the cards, so all of the insides are my own design.

I hope you give this floral birthday card a try. I would love to see what you make!

Stay tuned for more Fresh Fruit cards Wednesday.
