I have several birthdays in May and need to make some cards. I used the sketch at CAS(E) This Sketch for one of the cards.
I started my card with some Bristol smooth card stock. I dipped it in a pink oxide ink. After it was dried I used a stripe stamp from Kaiser Crafts stamped in pink. I masked off the diagonal line before I did any stamping. I then stamped one stripe across the top of the stripes to provide a breaking point for the stripes.
I cut some flowers off a Memory Box Die and colored them with the same oxide ink. The sentiment - from Art Gone Wild - was stamped in grey. I finished the card off by matting it in grey and adding a few sequins. I used some clear glitter in the center of the sequins and in the center of the flowers.
I am also entering this card in the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge where the challenge is A Trio of Something.
I am also entering it into the Wednesday Simon Says Stamp Challenge where the challenge is Happy Birthday.
I just stumbled across a new challenge to me - Always Fun Challenges where the challenge is Happy Birthday.
Thanks for dropping by.

This is a fantastic card! I really love how you blended both stripes and florals. And I love how you did it all with a simple color palette. The flowers give it a great bit of dimension and I can see this being perfect for so many different recipients! Thank you so much for sharing such a delightful creation with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
Very pretty! I love how you rotated the sketch!
