Birthday Card for a Friend

 I recently tried out some Brass & Bliss goodies for the first time, taking advantage of their sale on older products.  I'm very pleased with their quality!  Here's what I made for a friend's birthday.


supplies: white cardstock, Brass & Bliss Someone Like You rose, matching stencils, and die, Simon Trio 12 pinks, Dublin green inks, Honey Bee Stamps Daisy Layers stamp sentiment, Spellbinders Floral Expressions 3D folder

I knew I wanted to keep the design fairly simple, so I went looking for an embossing folder for the background; isn't this one perfect with it's large florals?  I used a Jen McGuire trick and cut out 2 more plain die-cuts to layer behind the colored one to save on using adhesive foam, which I go through like there's no tomorrow!  

I'll enter this into this week's Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Birthdays.

How is your day going?  Hope it's a good one.  Thanks so much for stopping by today!
