My hairdresser is retiring and selling her business, she's also having a long-awaited operation this month so I've made this card for her and her daughter when I go for my final hair cut with them.

To make this card I used:
5.5" x 4.25" white matt card blank
Spellbinders Designer Series 'Framed Floral Card Front' & My Favorite Things 'Fishtail Flags' dies
Hobby Art 'General Greetings' stamp
Versafine Deep Lagoon & Vintage Sepia ink
Snippets of white matt card and Polkadoodles 'Fourini' paper
I used both the floral panel and the frame to cut a snippet of white matt card. After removing all the small pieces from the panel I attached a snippet of turquoise and pink paper behind the panel before attaching it to the front of the card blank. I used Deep Lagoon ink to stamp the sentiment onto another snippet of white card, but as it was too bright I stamped it again with brown ink to make the colour a bit deeper. I then used the fishtail flag die to cut the sentiment, moving the die slightly to make the flag a little shorter. To finish I attached the sentiment to the card.
