Happy Birthday with Tulip Flowers

This stamp is originally an Easter stamp, but I cut off the sentiment so that the stamp is more versatile.
This stamp would make a wonderful Birthday card, so that's what I did.

The tulips were stamped with Black Memento ink and coloured with blendabilities (Melon Mambo and Old Olive).  I then cut the tulips out. 

A small oval was die cut using Whisper White cardstock, and the edges pierced with the Occasions Paper Piercing Pack and a Paper Piercer.  This was adhered to a Melon Mambo label framlet die cut using dimensionals.

The tulips were adhered to the white oval and dazzling details added to the edges of the blooms.

The basic card is Melon Mambo, layered with Whisper White cardstock embossed with the Polka dot embossing folder.  Two sizes of banners were die cut using the Banners Framelits - the larger one using Sweet Taffy DSP; the smaller one in Old Olive which had been embossed with the Tiny Triangles Embossing folder.  The two banners were adhered together and then added to right side of the Whisper White cardstoc.

The focal image was adhered to the upper left.  Below this image, a Melon Mambo bow, made with the Bow Builder punch, was added.

The sentiment, stamped in Old Olive, is from "Big Day" (SAB)
