Vicki's (5x7) 2023 Birthday Card

 I was able to see my sister right before her birthday so....
I couldn't resist making her another birthday card,
once I discovered these tiny potted plants & garden tools by The Dusty Attic!
They are BEYOND PRECIOUS!!!!!!!

My sister LOVES plants and she has a GREEN thumb to prove it!
Her home patio is gorgeously filled with all sorts of colorful 
flowers and plants and garden accessories...
it's DREAMY!

I made her card in a 5x7 size to try to fit as many garden elements as possible.


I used both embossing powders & inks in an array of colors for a springtime look. 
These tiny chipboard pieces are ultra-delicate!
Here are close ups of the front of the card.

Aren't these outlined bees the cutest?!
Yellow cardstock was cut out and glued under their bodies.

You have to admit this wheelbarrow & little garden tools are to die for!

Flower Soft and Bling added a little extra.

The Garden Gloves & Boots are too cute!


I also made a slightly larger sized envelope (5-1/4" x 7-1/5")
to fit the bulky card inside.


The inside sentiment is made using Dusty Attic chipboard letters
 and ReneaBouquets Beautiful Board from the 'Beautiful Memories' set.



Isn't this Bee Hive from ReneaBouquets so precious?!



Thanks for stopping by!
Hope you're having a wonderful Spring!
Lisa
