Cream & Gold Birthday Wishes

Hi Everybody,

Today's card is created with the Lacey Nested Oval and I have used cream and gold to make it.

It would make a lovely wedding card with an appropriate sentiment or change the colours for any other occasion.

It is 5x7 when finished and so will fit neatly into the 5x7 Card & Box Set

I have blended the flowers into the colour scheme ... but a little tip I learned a long time ago is to buy mostly white flowers and colour them your self to match your designs.


You can but Isopropyl from the pharmacy and is sometimes referred to as Rubbing Alcohol and it is not expensive. A little goes a long way

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

    Hello Christina,
    Sorry I've been missing for so long but I'm back now!
    What a beautiful card and also what an excellent tip and video you've given us. I've tinted the edges of flowers with ink pads, but this is even better so thank you.
    love Maureen x
