I used a 19x19cm card blank and chose 3 papers from an old scrapbook magazine - www.thepapertrail.co.uk. These papers complement the colours of the decoupage beautifully. I used a Martha Stewart edge punch down the edge of 1 paper and then distressed the edges using VersaMagic chalk inks - Jumbo Jave, Pink Pertunia and Aloe Vera.
To finish my card I added some lovely pink ribbon and complementary flowers from my stash. I added some foliage to the flowers made from using a punch - Pine from McGill. I added two fabric brads to the flower centres for extra texture and 2 lovely pins. To finish the card I added a "Birthday Recipe" sentiment, stamped using a Lili of the Valley stamp and another sentiment in the right hand corner - "Sugar and Spice and all things nice"
