Grand Happy Birthday

I made this card for a friend's birthday using a new set of floral dies.

I die cut 'happy birthday' from a snippet of dark red textured card and trimmed it so it was slightly narrower than the card blank before attaching it to the card.  I die cut the sentiment again from white matt card and inlaid the letters.  I used another snippet of dark red textured card to cut the largest flower and also cut one from a lighter red textured card.  I cut a flower centre from a tiny snippet of light green textured card and two large leaves from dark green textured card.  I layered the flowers with the lighter red on top of the flower and attached them to the top corner of the card.  I attached the flower centre and the two leaves underneath the flower.

To make this card I used:
     6" x 4" white matt card blank
     Memory Box 'Grand Happy Birthday' and Creative Expressions 'Finishing Touches -Pierced Summer Blooms' dies
     Snippets of dark red, red, dark green and light green textured card and white matt card
