Literally, my friend and I have celebrated 42 years of birthdays together! My BFF is also my demo and she gave me this set and punch for Christmas... so I had to turn it around and make her a bday card. I already gave it to her as I post this and she LOVED it.
I used a ton of challenges in one as I wanted to do the Mojo Motivator Challenge TLC 307. I used a new idea combined with the "make it shimmer" technique TLC 295. I put a few drops of the SU champagne shimmer paint into a spritzer of hand sanitizer and got this fabulous shimmer effect over all! In hind sight I would have shimmered the flower only, but it's still looks really cool irl!
I found that using the punch was way easier after I had stamped the flower onto the CS for the larger bloom but the smaller bloom worked fine having the paper already stamped. I was using the color challenge so I opted out of doing a leaf. I rolled the petals with a dowel rod to give them dimension then used glue dots so they would stay "puffy".
