I was asked to make a card for a very special lady who turned 75 this week. I made this elegant card using memorable moments by Stampin’ Up, and the gorgeous Venetian romance designer series paper …

The sentiment and numbers were stamped using the memorable moments stamp set. With all the numbers you’ll ever need in the set, it’s easy to make a card for any age you wish…

And I just love the venetian romance designer series paper, with its pretty, soft and subtle colours, so couldn’t resist using a length of this very pretty pattern in crisp cantaloupe for the card. Two strips of matching crisp cantaloupe cardstock, one edged with the scallop edge punch, made a pretty borders…

Flowers from pansy parade were stamped in black stazon ink onto whisper white cardstock, punched out with the matching punch, and adhered to the card with stampin’ dimensionals.

I added some adhesive rhinestones to the flower centres for a little bit of bling, and balanced this with rhinestones in the top right corner too.
Some of these items will be retiring at the end of this month, so do make sure you get hold of yours in time.

cardstock: naturals white, whisper white, old olive;
stamp sets: memorable moments, flower shop;
inks: black stazon;
punches & dies: pansy punch, scallop border, labels collection, secret garden framelits;
accessories: venetian romance dsp, stampin’ dimensionals, adhesive rhinestones.
All supplies from Stampin’ Up.
