Mom Birthday Card

I was able to steal time to make a quick birthday card for DMIL.  While going through my stash, I can't believe I've had this yellow flower for at least 8 years.  I need to keep using them!  See the inked inverted scalloped circle?  That's leftover from a project I made with Brooklyn last week (click here to see).  The embossed stamp is by Technique Tuesday.



You can see here the vellum gave after embossing.  Normally, I'd keep trying to make a perfect embossing, but not for this one.  I actually like the effect it gave the card.


As for the matching envie, I just applied some rub-ons then inked over it.  Yes... rub-ons.  I also have a lot of them in my stash.  I should use them more too.
