Birthday, Birthday
Both of these cards use images from Gina K. I colored them with Prismacolor pencils and blended with Gamsol. I then used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I mounted the flower and the outer edges of the leaves on foam squares. The sentiment on this first one is a Mrs. Grossman's sticker. I embossed the background with a Darice embossing folder. The finished size is 6.5 x 3.5. I have seven envelopes in the size that this will fit into, so I will be making more cards of this size.
The sentiment on this card is from the same Gina K set as the images. The flower is mounted on foam squares. The patterned paper is from Gina K, also. I added a thin strip of black above the gingham.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

Both of those cards are lovely! I think I've only ever made one card that would use a legal sized envelope. They're both great!
Your coloring on these flowers is so pretty! I've never used Gamsol, so I've no clue how it works. If I ever decide to give it a try, maybe I'll have to get a lesson or two from you! I love your narrow card. It's fun to make these different sizes, isn't it?
These cards are both so very pretty, Lynette! You're good with the pencils and Gamsol. I love the size of the first card and have made a bunch over the years because I have envelopes that size, too. I'll run out soon and will have to look at my punch board to see if I can make some that size.
