I'm sure I'm not the only person missing family and friends due to pandemic safety restrictions. We were very sad not to be able to see my wonderful Mother-in-Law for her birthday last month. At least I could send her this card and a lovely bunch of flowers. Hopefully, we will be able to celebrate with her later this summer.

"Anything Goes"
and our sponsor this month is:
Fred She Said
who are offering a prize of a $10 voucher for their store.
This is the 8"x 8" (20 x 20 cm) birthday card I made for my lovely Mother-in-Law.
I used a scalloped card blank and matted and layered it with card coloured with Distress Oxides. I used Picked Raspberry for the base layer and a blend of Lucky Clover and Twisted Citron for the centre panel.
I chose to work with this gorgeous Hibiscus image from our sponsor. It comes as a single flower and I used a graphics program to make it into a little bouquet. The flowers were coloured with Copics and then cut out leaving a white border.
I dyed some seam binding ribbon with Lucky Clover DOX and attached it to opposite corners before mounting the centre panel. I finished the card by stamping the sentiment and adding some gold gems.
