Birthday Song Flamingo Birthday Card

Hi friends!

The flamingos are back for the final card from this week’s Birthday Song Online Class to Go, but this time I’ve given them a completely different setting.

Rather than the strong, colourful background used on the first card, I’ve gone with much softer pink tones for this design. I really like how differently the same stamped image works just by changing the surrounding colours and layout.

The flamingos are positioned inside a large circular focal point, on top of a shimmer vellum circle.  I added a little sun towards the top and some grass along the bottom to give the flamingos a simple scene without making the background too busy.

The Petal Pink DSP, from the Beautiful Ordinary Life pack,  continues the colour theme through the rest of the card. Keeping the background fairly subtle means the flamingos remain the obvious focal point.

I added some coordinating twine across the lower part of the card, then layered the Happy Birthday sentiment over the top. A few gems finish everything off.

This card is also a good example of how you can get more from your stamps by using the same image in very different ways. The flamingos on the first card have quite a fun, lively feel, while this version is softer and more restrained, despite using exactly the same main image.

This is the final project from this week’s Online Class to Go. If you’d like to see this card being made, along with the other Birthday Song projects, check out the replay of my Live video.
