I made this card for the ABC challenge "B" and buds. I have a red Poppy bud and B for Birthday and bright red.
I stamped my flower, bud and leaf with Altenew inks and then die cut them out. I glued them onto black background. I embossed white and red background and used pop-dots to put black layer onto card. I stamped added the banner "Happy Birthday to You." Then, I used Crystal Lacquer to make the flower and bud glossy so that they would really pop! tfl

Wow, this is so beautiful, Gracie. Love your idea for B. The glossy bud and bloom is sure to please. I really like the whimsical looking banner, too, that you placed across this elegant looking birthday card!
