Popped Up Flowers

I needed a birthday card this week, so I thought I would pop up some of the elements so it would qualify for the StampTV Monthly Mix challenge - Pop It Up.

I'm not sure this is a great picture! I wanted to show the foiled background but it makes it hard to see the other details.

I foiled the background using gold foil and one of the sheets from the Swirls & Flourishes Foil-Mates. I love the sparkle and shine! I attached this to a card base.

I stamped the sentiment, cut it out with one of the Decorative Label dies and adhered it to the middle of the background. Then I stamped the flowers and leaves and cut them out with the coordinating dies. I coloured them with alcohol markers and popped them up with foam squares.

Using foil makes a quick background and you can make up some extra and have them on hand for a fast and elegant card.
