A Pretty Pink Happy Birthday.

Hello and Welcome to today's post.
Christmas cards are done and dusted and are all on their way so - 
time for playing with my favourite retired 
SU Botanical Blooms Set


Made for Color Hues for their current challenge
Color Hues #77 with the beautiful soft
pink/silver combo
and the
are celebrating their
5th Birthday Bash.

Don't you love milestone challenges!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Paper Funday.
I am also sending this over to their regular one
but without their optional twist of Snowman/or Birds
I'm afraid a snowman would melt in seconds here at the moment
with near #40c phew!

I die cut the front with white card stock
using a peek a boo die from MFT
then lightly inked Tim's stone stencil
with Hickory Smoke.
Die cut a SB square larger than the front
with pink card stock for the base.
Die cut leaves are heat embossed in
SU Silver and flowers coloured with
Lindy's Alpine Ice Rose and Oom Pah Pah Pink.
Added scattered gems to the leaves and
one to the main flower.
Sentiment inside is STAMPlorations Carved Flowers
which fitted perfectly behind the cut opening.
Certainly a hard card to photograph.
Thanks Nancy for choosing such a gorgeous color hue
for us this month.
Thanks also for taking time out to comment.

Ina, This is one of my favorite SU sets as well. I am loving the partially bricked wall and the open window for the greeting. It is a real beauty! Thanks for playing along at Color Hues and Merry Christmas to you.

This is a lovely card! The open window to the inside sentiment is wonderful, and the floral cluster and subtle stenciling are just perfect! Thanks for sharing with us at Color Hues!

Love the design of this card Ina with the soft stonework and the open window. Those pink blooms look lovely framing the window, thanks for joining in at Color Hues. :)
