Good Thursday morning and welcome to the Impression Obsession “Birthday Wishes” design team challenge. I decided to create a die cut birthday wishes card using the new Bride and Groom Frame die paired with the Greeting Set, Grass Border, Tiny Flowers and Rectangle 6-in-1 Frames.  I know!  You are wondering where the bride and groom is.  I decided to cut it out so I could use the canopy of trees to create a birthday scene.

I cut the bride and groom frame using white cardstock and colored the branches and leaves using memento markers. I cut lots of tiny flowers in pastel spring colors and cut the grass border in a bright green to match the leaves. I cut the frames and attached the two largest layers together using 1/8″ double stick tape.  The grass and tree frame were attached to the back of the frame with double stick tape and then the completed frame was attached to the card base with mounting tape.

I formed the flowers with my stylus and molding pad and attached them to the tree branches and grass border using glossy accents.  I finished by attaching the birthday sentiment on the card base using Crafter’s Pick glue.

To enter the challenge and see a complete list of our team payers go to the Impression Obsession Blog.  You’ll see all the details there!  A random challenge card will be selected to showcase on the IO blog.  Why don’t you come along and make your own die cut birthday wishes card.
