Blushing Birthday Wishes!

Today's card is for two challenges  at

Splitcoaststampers 

  Sketch Challenge  and  Color Challenge

Blushing Bride, Pear Pizzazz and Wisteria Wonder;  dessert option use Vellum

I stamped the leaves and flowers twice. Once to get the lighter shade by stamping off each color and once with full strength to show the details of the leaves and roses. The wisteria flowers were die cut with Altenew dies that coordinate with the stamps.  I used impression obsession  die for the trellis and the label die is by Lil' inker. The sentiment is stamped onto vellum and fussy cut. The sentiment is from Altenew's 'birthday greetings.

Game 24 Autumn Colors

You just can't resist the colors of Autumn! Fall puts on a majestic show of warm, bright and dazzling colors.  I die cut the leaves with impression obesession fall leaves die #DIE030-S and painted them with Twinkling H2Os. The woodgrain background label was colored with gelatos and I blended the colors by rubbing with fingers over the embossed background. Please see Tiffany's video.

I used Lil' inker "Frames & Flowers set #59926173 for the woodgrain label. The sentiment is WPlus9

 Freshly Made Sketches 151 

I always need masculine cards and wanted to use up some stickers from several golf packages. This sketch is perfect for any style, and I will use it again. To achieve the grass mound I used Lil' Inker Anytime tag die along with the stitched mats rectangles. The birds are from WPlus9 Dockside set and the sentiment is by Gourmet rubber stamps.
