I was asked to make a card for a friend's mum, who is turning 60 this year, and loves purple, butterflies and daffodils. I had the daffodils made up in my decoupage box, and ordered the 3d butterflies which are Anita's Dimension butterflies.
Then with my Lavender inkpad, I stamped the 60 in the lower corner and once it had dried, stamped "Happy Birthday to Someone Special" in the darker indigo colour, and positioned the butterflies around and above the message going towards the daffodil blooms. I then added a couple of the larger butterflies to the envelope, to make it extra special.

This card is a stand out and going straight into my faves! The tall orientation is perfect with your butterflies floating up to the daffodils. Purple and yellow make a lovely color scheme.

Wow! What a brilliant idea - the soft stamping for the numbers - clever you! I must remember that ... you have made the most wonderful birthday card, and I'm sure it will be treasured.
