Doodled & Punched Birthday Card

Flower Birthday Card
I have decided to try a few new ideas and techniques in the next little while, venturing out of my comfort zone like a timid tortoise! I blog hop most days and see lots of wonderful ideas, but that’s usually as far as it goes.

Well,  yesterday I saw this lovely card on Kath’s Blog and was inspired to try something very similar using her basic layout.

I don’t have any flower stamps so I used my large and small retro flower and snowflake punches and doodled on them.

The “h” is from the set of Making Memories alphabet stickers I got in the HobbyCraft sale last week.

The border tape is by Papercellar and I got it in the Dunelm Mill Sale for 80p a roll (10% off I think)
