Tiikerinlilja nelikymppiselle - Tiger Lily for Her 40th

Ohops, taas on mennyt melkein kuukausi viime postauksesta..?? Mihin ihmeeseen aika oikein kiirehtii, en tunnu ehtivän mukaan.. No, nyt kuitenkin koitan ehtiä postata tämän kortin, tein sen tilauksesta 40 vuotta täyttävälle naiselle. Mielestäni tuo Pennyn tiikerinlilja on sen verran tyylikäs, että se käypi hyvin täysien kymppien synttärikorttiin mutta on kuitenkin tarpeeksi nuorekas. Väritin sen Copiceilla ja leikkasin irti. Taustalle stanssasin pienet kehykset ja kiinnitin kukan tarrapaloilla siihen päälle. Taustapaperi on Lili of the Valley'ä, numerot ja teksti ääriviivatarroja ja koristeina jokunen paljetti. Yksinkertaista taas mutta toivottavasti tyylikästä!

I just do not know where time goes, it seems to fly past with at least double the speed it used to... It's been almost a month since my last blog post and I thought it was only a few days... Oh well, I'm here now with a new card :) I was asked to make a birthday card for a lady turning 40 and this is what I came up with. I chose to use this gorgeous 'Tiger Lily' by Penny Black as I think it's stylish and elegant enough for a " milestone" birthday card, yet it also has "young vibe" to it (as opposed to roses, for example). Anyways, I coloured it with my Copics and fussy cut it out. I die cut the little frame in the background and attached the flower on top of it with some foam adhesives for a little extra interest. The background paper is by Lili of the Valley, the numbers and sentiment (it says 'Congrats' in Finnish) are peel-off stickers, and as embellies there are some sequins. Hope the recipient liked the card!

A beautiful card Milla. You are right in saying the tiger lilly image is stylish and elegant and by adding foam pads at the back you have made it stand out.
Thank you for entering our Autumnal challenge at Penny Black and More this month and we hope you will join us again next month.
