A pretty birthday hydrangea card made for one of my oldest friend’s birthday – she loves hydrangeas. using the Hydrangea Haven stamp set.
Colours used in this project are:
To recreate the birthday hydrangea card, you will need:
Fresh Freesia card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Gorgeous Grape card – 4¼” by 3⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Shimmery White card – 4⅛” by 3” -– rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
The flower head of the hydrangea was stamped in Fresh Freesia ink around the edges of the Fresh Freesia card base to add some texture.

I stamped the beautiful hydrangea flower in Basic Gray ink onto the Shimmery White card.
Using the Fresh Freesia ink and a Water Painter I covered the whole blossom. Next, I added Highland Heather ink to some of the flowers and Gorgeous Grape into to others. Balmy Blue ink was added to fill the gaps.

I used Soft Succulent ink to colour in the leaves and stems of the flower.
The sentiment from the Best Year stamp set was stamped in Soft Succulent ink.

I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to add the stamped panel to the Gorgeous Grape panel. The panel was then added to the card base on Dimensionals.

I tucked a piece of Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon underneath the right- hand side of the panel, securing it in place with Mini Glue Dots.
