Sent with Love - Floral Birthday Card

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How is your week going? I know I have lots to do I just don' t seem to be able to get on with things at the moment. Quite a few things are in a state of change at the moment and I am finding it all rather unsettling. Nothing is bad just different.

I made a birthday card for someone special. All the dies I used are from the John Next Door range.


I knew I wanted to use the Oakham Lattice die set but I wanted a larger card. So I allowed for the large border around the die cut. Whenever I used John's dies the area around the bin is always covered in lots of little bits. 


I used the Gerbera flower and leaves dies to make a floral display. The person I made this for loves flowers. It is great how you can cut so  many at the same time. The Sent with Love sentiment comes with the Small Butterfly die set. 


I had to add some of the small butterflies as well. 


I know this card has been received so it is okay to share it now. I do like making larger cards. This one went in a parcel so it didn't effect the postage costs. 

I would like to enter the following challenges:
