Birthday Bash Sentiments Day 2

I am so glad you joined me today.  I have two sentiment sneak peaks and I can hardly wait for you to see them.  Today was a busy birthday day for me so I am running behind...my lil man had an awesome 8th birthday and was fortunate to celebrate with lots of extended family. 

The first card is a simple yet elegant card.  It could be used for a birthday, wedding, birth of a baby or a simple celebration.  I love this sentiment because of the size and because of its versatility to be used for so many occasions. I love white on white.  It just looks so pure!  I decided to add one hibiscus button among the black to make the card more feminine and I like the idea that it could be showing how a friend stands out in a crowd :)  I've provided two close up images so you can get a better look at the card as the lighting doesn't capture the effect.

Second up is a decorative clear card.  I decided to be a little eco friendly and all of the flowers I cut out from the vellum became the design for this card.  Have a look at the second small photo below.  I snapped a photo of the underside before I covered it in white cardstock.  You can see I used the cut outs as the base for my felt flowers.  Since I was using the outline I didn't have room for the sentiment on the card so instead I popped it up and framed it so it becomes a focal point. I just love how the letters in the font are different sizes and a mixture of upper and lower case.
