What an awesome challenge today is since I have truly been resolving to figure out what I could do better for 2014. When it comes to crafting, I have three goals. One is to make more cards that are not only for Birthdays but to encourage others...there are so many in need of encouragement. This card is my first to begin meeting this goal.
I created this card with the ODBD Lavender, ODBD Joy in a Jar cut out with the ODBD Antique Labels and borders dies, ODBD Ornate Border Sentiments, and ODBD Decorative Corners dies.
The edge is embossed with silver embossing powder. The lavender is masked and stamped four times to create a field of lavender and cut with copics. The image panel is also dry embossed with a provocraft foliage embossing folder that has embossing only one side. The borders along on the bottom are created with the ODBD Antique Labels and Borders dies and the Spellbinders Floral Doily Accents.
Thanks for an awesome challenge Michelle!! Thanks for looking all!!

This is just beautiful. Love the corner treatment and your lavender flowers. You've also chosen a wonderful goal. Everyone needs a little encouragement now and then and your pretty cards will do the trick.
