TGIF everyone! I hope you have all enjoyed your week. I have another Mint Motif card to share with you today. This one was made with both of Mint Motif's newest sets...Beyond Borders, Too and Simply Sentiments. You can find them both on the i {heart} papers website.
I've had these red chipboard letters for a LONG time and put them to use on this card. I used the 'happiest birthday to you' stamp from Simply Sentiments and stamped it onto my cardstock being careful not to ink up the 'you'. My flower for the 'o' was created out of twine, felt and a rolled flower made from My Mind's Eye Dilly Dally collection.
The bottom portion of my card was stamped with the chicken wire background image from Beyond Borders, Too.
There are quite a few sentiments in the Simply Sentiments set that have a 'you' at the end. These could easily be replaced with a 'you' like the one I created above. Just gives you another option when creating with sentiment sets, which I love! :)
That's all for today. Have a wonderful weekend and a Happy Easter!

Love your card! Pretty colors. I like how you used the twine to make a flower behind the flower. How did you do this? Thanks for sharing.
