Fuchsia Birthday

My friend wanted another floral birthday card to send to a relative in England, so I thought about this Exotic Fuchsia stamp and die set from Heartfelt Creations. I stayed with the Papertrey Quaterfoil background die, then stamped the image onto the largest Spellbinders Labels 6. The two fuchsia buds were stamped, die cut and glued on top of the original image. The center flower was also stamped and die cut, though I raised this image up a bit more on foam dots. Copic markers were used to color the flowers and leaves: RV00, RV17, RV63, YG61, YG63, and YG67.

On the interior I used the same basic design adding two fuchsia die cut images. The happy birthday is a new die cut from Whimsy Stamps - I cut it out of black paper, then again out of green paper, layering the two to give it a shadow effect.
