Inspiration for a great card design is all around us. Today's inspiration came from the many flowers starting to fill the yards with color. The Zinnia is a wonderful summer flower and the Zinnia Flower Happy Birthday card is bright and cheerful. I like to have several birthday cards on hand to give to family and friends. This card makes a great addition to my stash.
Supplies used: White cardstock, pink cardstock, lime green cardstock, Sizzix Texture Boutique, Sizzix embossing folder (Flower Vine & Twizzle Set, 656799), Fiskars edge punch (Upper Crest), flower stickers by Martha Stewart Crafts (Dimensional Zinnia Stickers, M355004), Hero Arts clear stamp (Classic Messages, CL414), and Stampin' Up! classic stampin' pad in Lucky Limeade (122935).
