Found Joy

Hi Everyone!

I've had some time to create with some brand new stamp sets I got from TAC- these will be in the new catty which is set to start shipping today! Hurray!! We were able to buy a few sets at a reduced rate through the May and June Jubilation special- you can check out the details on the right side of my blog... The set I used today is called Found Joy. I love this set! You can really do a lot with the separate floral elements. For this card I samped the grass a few times with out reinking to get the variable look in the color of the ink. I did the same with the flower but also used the rock and roll technique to add some dark to the edges.  I stamped some extra flowers and cut them out and mounted them with foam tape to the image. I outlined them with the stardust gelly pen for some sparkle and added a gem to the middles for some bling. A beautiful bow and a bit of edge punching and voila- a very nice birthday card. The sentiment is from another new set-Birthday Word Search.  What do you think??
