Havana Birthday Wishes

Hi friends! I hope the week is treating you right so far. It's a busy one around here with Teacher Appreciation week activities, the school spring performance and separate Mother's Day celebrations in the boys' classrooms. All super fun things, but juggling everything is becoming quite the balancing act.

I snuck in a little craft time yesterday to finish a card that's been half done for about a week. I had colored the floral cup from the new Favorite Mom digi with copic markers and cut with a stitched circle die.  The flowers from the same digi were also colored and fussy cut.  I was pleasantly surprised to see my coloring matched some of the papers in the beautiful new Havana collection from Prima.

I layered these pieces on a small white doily die cut, then stamped and embossed the birthday sentiment from the Sentimental Wishes stamp set on a Lacey Frames die cut. This is layered onto an even larger doily die cut, then I accented with some white Nuvo drops. 

To tie in the colors of the paper a bit more, I added some sponging around the pink and aqua papers with distress ink, then finished off with a white taffeta double bow.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
