Cherry Blossoms Birthday by Carolyn Summers

On a quarter sheet of parchment, stamp the cherry blossom image randomly, as shown, in Brilliance white ink. Let dry.
Turn the parchment over and using a stylus ball tool gently emboss the cherry blossoms over a pad or cushion (a mouse pad will work). Turn parchment back to front and use a gold pen to highlight some of the lines in the blossoms and add red glitter along with a few gold beads to the center of the flowers. Edge the parchment with a gold Krylon leafing pen.

Stamp "Happy Birthday" with black StazOn ink. Mount to a red card.
