Another birthday card for the order put in by my co-worker. This card is also for the current Paper Smooches Sparks challenge. I was inspired by the kraft background to start with. I also like the white flowers with the coloured outlines. I didn't want that much white on the card though so I flipped the idea and made coloured flowers with white outlines instead. Lovely spring colours and I guess this card could really be used for a number of occasions - those Pretty Phrases sentiments are so handy that way!Cardstock: (So Saffron, Blushing Bride, Pool Party, Wisteria Wonder, Crumb Cake) Stampin' Up
Stamps: (Flower from Friendly Flowers, Sentiment from Pretty Phrases) Paper Smooches
Inks: (VersaMark) Tsukineko
Embossing Powder: (Seafoam White) Ranger
