Birthday Card ~ A Little More Polka {2nd Post}

One of my favorite color combos is black and white.
I had such a fun time creating my own backgrounds
on yesterday's cards I did it again on this card.
I stamped the flowers and gave them polka dot centers.
I love that the circle centers are separate so you can add them to the flowers or not.
They come in three sizes and can be used for other creative adventures.
The butterfly and flowers were attached using foam tape to give them dimension.



*Card base 4.25 x 5.5 in.
*Flowers from the Pedals and Stems  stamp set from Verve Stamps.
*Happy Birthday Plain Jane sentiment from Verve Stamps.
*Doily from SpiegelMom Scraps.
*Circles cut using the Spellbinders Standard Circles Large Die set.
*Embossed using the Cuttlebug Swiss Dot folder.
*Design paper from the Recollections Black and White paper pad.
*Foam tape.
*Memento Tuxedo Black stamp pad.


May your day always be filled with love.
