I love the elegance of white and gold, so when I needed a birthday card for a friend, I decided to use white and gold with just a little color for the flower sentiments.
I started with a white A2 card base. Then I embossed a panel of white cardstock using Altenew's Elegant Bows 3D embossing folder. I trimmed the panel to 4 1/8 by 5 3/8 inches and adhered it to the card front.
For the flowers, I die cut the flower pieces using Altenew's Craft-Your-Life: Magnificent Magnolias kit and white cardstock. I ink blended the flower centers using Altenew's Fresh Lemon, Citrus Burst, and Fresh Leaf inks. I assembled all the flowers. Then I die cut a large label using Altenew's Labels and Tags 1 die set and gold cardstock and arranged the flowers on the gold label using Altenew's Instant Dimension Foam Tape.
To finish the card, I stamped "happy birthday" using Altenew's Craft-Your-Life: Splendid Bouquet kit and Altenew's Obsidian ink and die cut the coordinating die several times to stack up the sentiment for dimension. I adhered it to the card using liquid glue in some places and more Instant Dimension Foam Tape in others.
