A flowery birthday card (1)

 I'm not much of a Valentine Day's card maker, and the colors of red/pink are so so Love themed, but I wanted to play with these colors (plus kfrat), so I made a birthday wishes card.

I die cut the background outline image twice - one from a dotted kraft dp, and the second from a dark red cs. I used the flower and leaves die also twice - from white cs and from pink cs. I really love how it turned out!

For the lighter shade of red, I stamped the sentiment with Hero Arts Pale Tomato ink on t a pink cs, that I first kind of embossed with dotted leaves die.

I matted the pink cs with dark red cs, and mounted it on a kraft cs basis.

Since I was left with some die cut left overs, I made a very similar card, playing differently with the colors. I will share with you the 2nd card later.

It goes for the following challenges:
