Joan's Gardens Weekly Challenge #5....

Well here is my first post on my first Blog!! I was told about Joan's Gardens Weekly Challenges by my Sister, So I am going to submit this card I made to Joan's challenge!!
Here is what you need to do for Joan's Gardens Weekly Challenge #5....

1. Use Coral/pink and Green for your colors
2. A Birthday Sentiment
3. Vintage Paper
4. Handmade or Punch flower

I made this card for a very good friend.
I used a peach/pink card stock for the flowers-label-and for the base of the card.I used a  vintage floral paper for the background, green for the leaves and a brownish green paper for the branch. I cut the paper to fit my card and distressed it on the sides. I also cut my floral paper a little smaller and also distressed it on the sides.The flowers I used a Martha Steward punch. With each flower I used three punches. I distressed the end of the petals and on the center punch I cut the petals in the center a little more with scissors. I used a brass brad to attach all three petals. The leaves were punched out with an EK success flower punch. I also distressed the outside of the petals. I used my cricut to cut out the branch with the Winter Wonderlandcartridge. The Happy Birthday Label was made with the spellbinders Labels 8 die and I also distressed the outside. The stamp I used was the Happy Birthday stamp from Hampton Arts. I also embossed it with a copper embossing powder. I had a lot of fun with making this card. I hope you like it.
