Feminine and flowers are two words that are often associated with each other, especially when it comes to special occasions. If you would prefer paper flowers whose beauty never fades over live ones which can wilt and wither, then this feminine, floral birthday card may be right up your alley! It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!
This week, the super talented Jaydee is hosting our Tic-Tac-Toe challenge. In case you couldn’t tell, I went with florals, birthday and feminine. I can’t wait to see what YOU create!

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
Oh my gosh! I feel guilty telling you how easy it is to make today’s card. It simply involves die cutting. The floral base was die cut from Petal Pink card stock, which is a pretty, peachy pink. The overlay was die cut from Basic White. Because I wanted to accent the sentiment with leaves that coordinated with the die cut, I cut a second floral base from Soft Succulent card stock and snipped out a few leaves, saving the rest for another card. I could have just as easily used a leafy die from another set, but I really like the leaves created with the Many Layered Blossoms die. A few pastel pearls add a finishing touch.

This is so beautiful! I love the colors, the cluster of gorgeous flowers and the pearls! This card will make someone so happy! I love every detail!
Absolutely gorgeous in every way, Ann! Love that beautiful color combo, too. Wow!
I would love to have this beautiful cluster of flowers to look at every day, Ann. You’re right, they will always be beautiful and colorful. Not only are these blooms beautiful, but your color choices are perfect!
I just love dies and these are SO awesome!! Love your blooms!
So pretty and perfectly feminine, Ann. I love the colors, the touch of pearls, the texture – so elegant. Thank you for rocking my challenge this week

I love this set Ann and following a big class with it last September haven’t used it much since but your card reminds me I should get these dies out and get creative with it again – this is so pretty and your colour combo definitely makes it special!
My favorite go to dies, when I need all kinds of occasions.
I get so many compliments. Love your color combinations Ann.
This is a showstopper! The colors are fantastic together! You are going to make this die fly off the shelves! WOW!
It’s a beautiful card! I haven’t used that set often enough.
If I received this card, I would put it in a scrapbook, to keep forever. It’s that special. Of course, your cards are always special!
So pretty! Great idea to die cut another panel to use the leaves for a contrasting color! And my first demo back in the day always said that a floral stamp set would last longer than a floral arrangement so stamps were always a good birthday gift! Have a great week!
Beautiful card! Very classy.
OMGoodness your card is just so pretty! I love it but then I love all your cards! BTW: DITTO what Michael Funke stated! LOL!
Ann – I would really appreciate you NOT giving me a reason to buy yet ONE MORE die set.
The flowers are such a pretty pattern and with your color choices every thing turned out stunning. Very classy!!
