Birthday Gold and Silver

-

A very quick later birthday card I made for a lovely friend. Remind me to incorporate more gold and silver bling in my cards for that extra oomph. 

I followed the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches #513 down to a tee. It was such a nice sketch I was so inspired. The Color Hues #30 of Silver and Gold made for just the perfect color combo for this sparkly card. I added different shades of silver and gold, including a greyish silver banner and writing her name in silver foam, finishing up with some gold and silver rhinestones. As it was a birthday card, a little foam cake sticker was just the perfect image. 

I really enjoyed the process of making this card.

Birthday Florals

I included two of my most favourite colors in this card following the sketch from Sketch Saturday 681 .  I didn't follow it too closely, but just added few elements as my card is super small.  I decided on a suble birthday card. There isn't a lot of elements here, I wanted to kee it super simple. The background paper is the winner here. I added a somple floral image and brought everything together with the elements of the sketch. The pink banner perfecly compliments the cupcake and the pink stars and enamel dots.

This color challenge from CAS 442 really made me feel like I need to increased my paper stash because I don't have any of the colors? I tried to use my watercolors but alas it wasn't the best. Still, I enjoyed the process of making this card and it's a reminder to go and buy more cardstock ahaha.  For the background, I painted on two different pieces of paper on colors that were the closest to the challenge. Used some floral motifs and vellum to create the image and added a sentiment ephemera from my stash.
