Tulip Birthday Card


I made this card for a friend who has a beautiful garden. She often posts photos of her flowers on Facebook and they are SO pretty! I thought she would enjoy a floral birthday card this year. The tulips are from Kat Scrappiness and I inked the edges of the tulip blooms then cut the stems/leaves from a green pearl cardstock. Of course, I had to add a couple of butterflies as well.


Inside, the stamped and matted sentiment is popped up on an accordion folded 'spring'.  I have been using those a lot the past couple of months 😊.


One more look ...


Here is a link to Sam Calcotts video where she shows her paper springs. 

Having been asked how many cards I make I thought it would be fun to keep track this year. Many of my posts include more than a single card or project and below is my tally.
