Hi there!
Wow, I was amazed to see all the wonderful inspired cards in the gallery at CAS(e) this sketch last week. You all rocked my sketch! Thanks for everyone who played along!
But now... it's time for a new sketch with the compliments of Sam!
I used the sketch to make a personalized card for my mom, who turns 80 on the 29th of this month!
So excited because we will be travelling to South-Africa next week for this special birthday celebration!
My sentiment reads 'Happy birthday Mother' in Afrikaans.
I used a cutting file from the Silhouette online store ( design ID : #79531) for my focal point.
I removed the outline of the rose in the Silhouette studio, and cut it once more to create a stencil for my background.
Sponged the rose with picked raspberry distressed ink (Tim Holtz) and the leaves with Green Hills distress ink (Hero arts)
I am linking to Seize the birthday ~no topping option.

Beautiful beautiful card Hannelie!
Your stenciled background is so soft and lovely, and I love how you added the single bloom to your panel! Gorgeous card, Hannelie!
Have a safe and fun trip to visit your family! I'm sure your mother is going to enjoy having you there for this special birthday! She's sure to love your card, too!
Beautiful, soft florals on this card! I love the stenciled background and then the single added coordinating diecut rose. Perfect!!
Wonderful girly card my friend, I'm sure your mother will love it,

So pretty! I love how you used the negative as a stencil! Happy Birthday to your Mom!
Clever to make a stencil and use it as background! Wonderfully soft colors - the fresh green makes it pop!
Very, very pretty card Hannelie! Your stenciled background is gorgeous.
This is simply stunning, Hannelie!! Blew me away at first glance! I just know your mom is going to love this even more than I do. That rose is lovely, and I love the stenciling. Very sweet. Bev
Happy birthday to your mum, Hannelie - I know she'll love this gorgeous card! Have a fabulous time back home and give an elephant a kiss for me!
Wow, just gorgeous! And you can just see the love in this card. Have a wonderful trip home!
I'm so glad there was a good turnout for your fun sketch, Hannelie. You really rocked this new sketch, but then you always do!! Your mother will cherish this stunning card! I wish you safe travels to see her!! Hugs, Darnell
Dis nogal 'n besonderse kaartjie en ek glo jou ma sal daarvan hou!!
Geniet die verjaarsdag!!
Groetnis!
Hannelie, that stencilled background is to die for ( no pun intended!). This is exquisite. I'm sure your Mum will be absolutely thrilled that you're going home for her birthday. Have a happy and safe trip! x
Gorgeous, gorgeous card, love your stenciled background, how clever to do it with the same outline from your beautiful flower.
Have a safe and fun trip to see you mom!!
Hugs,
Maria Rodriguez.
Making a stencil of the focal flower makes such an impact, Hannelie. A gorgeous card I'm sure your mother will love. Have a great visit.
Beautiful card for your mother's 80th birthday! I love the soft pink and the cut out flower on top. I know she'll love it and you'll enjoy your visit. You can never get enough hugs from your mother. Safe travels.
Deze roos ziet er uitgestanst en als stencil beiden zo mooi uit! Een moderne en elegante kaart voor je moeder!
Alvast gefeliciteerd en alvast een hele fijne trip gewenst!! Groetjes, Gerrina
A trip to South Africa to celebrate your mom's 80th birthday is such a great reason to celebrate!
A stunning creation that she will love, not only because it is beautiful but because it was made by your hands from your heart! I love the soft colors paired with a bold sentiment.
Great idea to use the same gorgeous diecut on the front of your card to use as a stencil to create this lovely BG - it ties the whole thing up beautifully! And what a wonderful celebration this card was created for ... Best Wishes to your Mom!
You are such an inspiration to me! I am pinning this card for sure! Have a great time celebrating with your mom! Thanks for sharing your time and talents with us at Seize the Birthday!
Soft, dreamy, delicate and so beautiful, Hannelie! Happy Birthday to your Mom ... and safe travels! Hugs, Anita :)
I'm certain your mother will love this. It's so pretty! I wish her many more happy birthdays to come!!
So pretty, I'm sure your mom will absolutely love it! And hope her Birthday is wonderful! 80 is quite a benchmark!
Beautiful card Hannelie. Love the background and the die cut flower. Thanks so much for joining us at Seize the Birthday.
Just love your card!! The pink is striking with the black accents and what a pretty background idea!! Thanks for sharing the Silhouette hints.
O, jou rose lyk pragtig, vrou - ek is mal oor hoe jy dit as stensil gebruik het - dit maak 'n lieflike raam vir die wit paneel met die sentiment en die roos!!! Die bietjie groen van die blaartjies en die swart perels voltooi die prentjie so mooi!!!! Ek hou van die klein 80 in die sirkeltjie!!! Eenvoudig pragtig!!! So bly vir jou dat julle hierdie spesiale dag met jou ma sal kan deel!!! My ma was in Feb 80!!!!
Groete
