Congratulations Card

I made this card for a baby shower I am attending on the weekend.
I started with a Stampin Up Night of Navy card.  I created the white spatter layer with a Night of Navy reinker, a drop of water and a toothbrush onto white photo paper.  I cut the large scallop at the top from Old Olive card stock with the SU Sizzix Big Shot Large Scallop Edgelits Die.  I wrapped a piece of Grosgrain Stitched ribbon in the NofN color. This layer was adhered aligned along the top of the card. I've placed 2 tiny white brads on either end to keep them adhered to the card front. I placed 2 lengths of Old Olive Washi Tape from the Santa & Co. Designer Series across the bottom third of the card.  I stamped the greeting in NofN onto white with the congratulations one from the Perfect Punches set. It is adhered to the card front with 3D foam tape.  I adhered 3 buttons in Old Olive with Zot along the right edge of the white layer.

Card - HB - Zinnia

Here's a card for my sister who celebrates her birthday this month.  I selected a photo of a zinnia I took a while ago.  I applied a couple of filters to it and printed it 3x4 inches.  I created a frame which I printed then adhered the print inside.  I found a dark green card which worked well.  I added a green layer of designer paper which I had stamped a texture in dark green.  That picked up some of the colors in the photo.  Once the background layer and the print layer were attached I went through my stack of greetings and found one that would work. Some Stampin Up Modern Label and Word Window punchies.
I need to get in out in the mail right away.
