I decided to make a feminine birthday card using the AHSC sketch.
The inspiration for this card came from a package of ephemera called Easter Time Mix and Match Ephemera which will be available in the new January to April Stampin' Up! catalogue on January 6th, 2026. The precut images feature beautiful subtle colours and I was really drawn to the combination of purples and yellow in the floral designs.
