Birthday card featuring a scrapbook paper collage background, one of my digital images and an epoxy sticker

I made this card for my sister for her birthday coming up soon.  I started with a large envelope and created a blue card to fit inside.  I used scraps of decorative paper to create a collage for my background.  I used regular tape to attach them to each other on the back and then trimmed it to fit on my card front and then adhered it in place.  I have a supply of epoxy stickers from a ways back and found them the other day looking for something else.  I thought I should see if I can use them up so I added one to this card.  It is a blue image that looks like a postage stamp and says "Rest and Relaxation" on the bottom.  I mounted it to a little blue rectangle of cardstock that coordinated with my back ground.  I watercoloured my floral image - a digital doodle that I create a while back - mounted it to yellow then to blue cardstock.  I ran my tracing wheel on the four sides of my greeting before mounting it to blue as well.  I played with the layout of my elements til I was happy with it and then adhered all the elements in place on my card front to finish it off.  Very happy with how it turned out and will be creating more collage backgrounds with scraps.              Therese
