For the new Around The World Stampin' Up! Sketch Challenge I used the Flower Patch stamp set to create this "Happy Blooming' Birthday" card...

Stamps: Flower Patch (photopolymer: 134207). Ink: Blackberry Bliss (133642), Pear Pizzazz (131180), Pool Party (126982), Crumb Cake (126975), VersaMark (102283). Card/Paper: Lost Lagoon (133686), Pear Pizzazz (131292), Very Vanilla (106550). Accessories: Venetian Crochet Trim (134581), Linen Thread (104199), Blackberry Bliss and Lost Lagoon Stampin' Write Markers (In Color: 133654), Pearls Basic Jewels (119247), White Stampin' Emboss Powder (109132). Tools: Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine (113439), Magnetic Platform (130658), Flower Fair Framelits Dies (133731), Beautifully Baroque Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (130917), Boho Blossoms Punch (119858), Heat Tool (129056), Stamping Sponges (101610), Glue Dots (103683), Stampin' Dimensionals (104430).

The Flower Patch stamp set usually expects a spring-like creation in bright colours, but I think that it also lends itself well to a more-muted vintage style too. I finished this card with the delicate Venetian Crochet Trim, new to the Annual Catalogue and perfect for this vintage card...
