I used the stamp set, Flower Fest which I need to use more. I just love how this card turned out. I stamped the flower 4 times on Almost Amethyst cardstock (retired, darn it!) with Versamark Ink and embossed them with white embossing powder. I used my Aqua Painter to add a darker purple (Vintage Violet - retired) onto the petals. I stamped the leaves with Versamark onto Certainly Celery. I cut them all out separately and stacked the flowers on top of each other with dimensionals. The "happy birthday" is from A Word for You. (I masked off "with a cherry on top") I found the ribbon in my jar of ribbon remnants and crinkled it with the heat gun.
Tonight the family met Marianne and her boys at a Mexican restaurant in Statesville. Of course, the waiters sang to her and I got this great picture of her!!!
