Floral Birthday Wreath

 Even though this stamp set comes with a festive greeting, I thought I would adapt it for use as a birthday card.  Here's how it ended up.

Stamp the birthday greeting from Celebrations Greeting Quotes set 1 into the centre of a 7" x 7" white card blank in Jet Black Archival ink.

Add the Circle Frame stencil and go round the shape with a pencil.

Add two of the flowers from the Season's Greetings Flower set in the same ink as before.

Mask up the flowers.

Add the large branch from the set twice in a like manner.

Add the smaller branch in the same way.

Remove the masking.

Erase the pencil line.

Colour the flowers and leaves using Faber-Castell Polychromos (#108, #134, #135, #167, #267).

To finish, add green Pergamano gel pen to the ends of the branches.
