Spellbinders Birthday Cosmos

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by cutting the Cosmos from Neenah 110lb cardstock and the pieces from pink and yellow cardstocks. I did some light ink blending on the petals using Peony ink, drew some veins with a pink colored pencil and assembled the flower with liquid glue. I wanted this flower on a stem so I used the Layered Wildflowers set and cut that from Green Apple cardstock with some ink blending with Pearfection ink.

The Journal Grid BetterPress Plate was inked using Misty Coast ink, trimmed down and gold splattered for some additional interest. I chose the light grey ink because I wanted a subtle background for this card.

I gold foiled the You Are Everything Plate onto Neenah 110lb and trimmed it out with the coordinating die, along with two additional cuts because I love that stacked sentiment look. The background was adhered to the card base and the leaves and flower were glued in place while the sentiment were adhered using foam strips.

That finishes up this project! I hope you enjoyed it! Don’t forget to check out all of the May releases over on the Spellbinders website! Thanks again for joining me, and have a fabulous day!
