Pretty Pink Posh - Hibiscus Flowers

Happy Friday!  I'm super excited to share today's card with you.  Did you know that I am guest designing for Pretty Pink Posh the next few months?  I'm over the moon about it!  I have been a fan of Paulina long before she even started Pretty Pink Posh.  She is a wonderful, kind, inspiring person, and I consider it an honor to be working with her.   

The moment that I saw Pretty Pink Posh's Hibiscus Flowers and Happy Birthday Script Dies I knew I had to get them and use them for my mom's birthday card this year.  She loves Hawaii and tropical flowers!  I die cut lots of flowers from Concord and 9th's Honeysuckle and Grapefruit cardstock. (Random Side Note: Did you know Grapefruit is my very favorite color in C9's new color line? Now you do. :) ) Back to the card!  I used C9's Clover and Sprout cardstock for the leaves.  Don't these colors make the best tropical combination?  

As the floral frame started coming together I realized it would make a great shaker card, and I never looked back.  I popped the flowers up, trimmed off the edges, and filled the shaker with Pretty Pink Posh's 4mm sparkling clear sequins.  I love that they add just the right amount of fun without being a distraction.

I think I could look at these pretty flowers all day.  They do wonders to cheer a mood!  In fact, I was loving them so much that I stamped more and made a second card that I'll share next week.  It is en route to a dear friend right now, and I don't want to spoil the surprise.  Thanks so much for visiting today!  See you soon!
