Happy Birthday To A Wonderful Friend! {SSSC265}

Hi everyone!  Happy Sunday!

It’s time for a new Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge, and this week we are up to SSSC265!  I totally love this sketch!  I also totally LOVE the new LJD Modern Blooms set and LJD Modern Blooms Die-namics, along with my beloved Diagonal Stripes Background (it is seriously difficult for me to not use this background stamp!)

How fun is this sketch?  I started by cutting the flowers and leaves from Smooth White Card Stock using the LJD Modern Blooms Die-namics, and then stamped them all with the LJD Modern Blooms set.  I used In The Buff Premium Dye Ink, Peach Bellini Premium Dye Ink, Coral Crush Premium Dye Ink and Persimmon Premium Dye Ink for the flowers, and Spearmint Premium Dye Ink and Jellybean Green Premium Dye Ink for the leaves.  I arranged them on top of a square cut from Natural Card Stock using the Stitched Square STAX Die-namics, and popped them up with Jody Boosters.  The sentiment panel was cut from Smooth White Card Stock using Blueprints 12 Die-namics, and I stamped the sentiment, “Happy Birthday To A Wonderful Friend” from LJD Pretty Poppies using Black Licorice Hybrid Ink.

The main panel of Smooth White Card Stock was cut with Blueprints 13 Die-namics and stamped with the Diagonal Stripes Background using Coral Crush Premium Dye Ink.  I added a mat of Natural Card Stock cut with Blueprints 2 Die-namics.  I cut another panel of Smooth White Card Stock using Blueprints 13 Die-namics, and then ran it through my Big Shot again, shifting the die over a bit, to create a more narrow panel.  I popped up the focal panel in the center using Jody Boosters, and then added a trio of enamel dots/rhinestone.

On the inside, I cut another panel of Smooth White Card Stock cut with Blueprints 13 Die-namics, and added a mat of Natural Card Stock cut with Blueprints 2 Die-namics.  I stamped another sentiment, “enjoy your special day” from Birthday Greetings using Black LIcorice Hybrid Ink.
