Create with Connie and Mary Sketch#164

I made this card with the Playful Polka Dots Simply Scrapin' Kit(only available until August 31st) and for the Create with Connie and Mary Sketch Challenge#164 here.

I started with an Old Olive card stock base. I added papers from the Playful Polka Dots SSK. I also added die-cut strips, the flowers and the stems. The only stamping on the card was the greeting from On Your Birthday. I stamped that in Old Olive, punched it out with the Word Window punch and popped it up with Stampin' dimensionals. How cute and quick is that?
Here's my recipe:
Stamps: On Your Birthday
Papers: Whisper White, Old Olive, Playful Polka Dots SSK
Inks: Old Olive
Accessories: Stampin' dimensionals

I added three different patterns from the Nursery Nest DSP, rounding the corners of the Pear Pizzazz and Blushing Bride patterns.

I matted that onto a Perfect Plum piece punched with the Scallop Oval punch and popped it up with Stampin' dimensionals.  Finally, some 3/8 inch Perfect Plum taffeta ribbon finishes it off.
