Subtle Flowers for Big Wishes

 Good Afternoon, Friends!

Today I have a card to share, for Daughter #2's Birthday (actually tomorrow, but we celebrated today).  This card brings many wishes for her personally, but also for the wee one she's carrying!  Yep, this'll be our second grandchild and we are ecstatic!
While most of us got together, our youngest daughter and family were unable to make it due to sickeness.  While a cold or cough might be okay most days, we needed to take the extra precaution for Mama-to-be, so sadly some couldn't attend.

Here's the card ~


I ink-blended the florals from an NBUS stencil/die set and cut it out.  The double hexagon frame and sentiment were hot foiled in black and die cut, to accent the black flower centers.  The hexagon frame was popped up on foam, the flower popped up on low foam tape and the sentiment over that.  Can you notice the shine from the foiling?  Can you see the subtle color on the card base?  Maybe this helps.  Maybe not.  


That foiling is hiding but the bottom left was ink blended with leftover ink on the brush in teal, and leftover sage in the upper right.

 While I already had this card made, my friend Michele directed me to the challenge at Inkspirational #335 moodboard, plus I get to play along at NBUS #71 for most of my items used -- yay!

 

Supplies:
   Alt. - Hill Blossoms stencil/die (NBUS)
   MFT - Double Hexagon hot foil plate (NBUS)
   PFS - Fancy Script Words hfp/dies


That's it for me today!  Thank you for the visit -- have a blessed weekend!

Hugs,
TK
