Floral Birthday Wishes

I'm working on a card order that is right up my alley...floral!! I used colored pencils to color in the floral stamp (SU!) on watercolor paper. I layered it on a piece of Certainly Celery cardstock that has been faux stitched and distressed. The cream cardstock on the rest of the card I picked up at The Paper Cut's Warehouse Sale in December. It is a glimmery lightweight cardstock/coated paper that has vertical ribs running down it. Very pretty paper. Wish is by SU! and is stamped in stazon ink. Love the oval punches from SU!....and I simply pierced around the celery one for a different look before popping them up on foam tape. The ribbon is from who knows where....but I wish I did...after all this time I've decided that I really like it!!
Love the script cuttlebug folder...it can make simple just elegant!
