Two greeting cards with the same motifs and greetings. A humingbird is hovering above a floral arrangement. The greeting says “Wishing you a lovely day.”

I received the February Better Press Plate, Flutter Into Spring, and proceeded to create two very quick cards

I foiled the floral, the bird and one of the two sentiments on Hammermill cardstock. Once I had laid out the scene on the Glimmer surface, it was easy to foil more, so I created one card with Glimmer rainbow foil, and one with Glimmer gold foil.

I cut down the Hammermill panels to 4” by 5.25”. Then I matted one with Recollections purple glitter paper and one with Recollections gold foil paper. I adhered them to the card bases and I was done.
