Yogi here today. Suzanne came out with a bunch of beautiful digital frames and had to use one of them. Also love the deco type roses and I was in a colorful mood...
I'm using a design element background stamp from Quietfire Design ("Crackle Background")
I'm using a clear quote stamp sets from Quietfire Design ("A Bit Of Fragrance Collection" 8pce set) also available from Elizabeth Craft Designs HERE
And am using a few of Suzanne's electronic files available on Silhouette onLine store. Click the image to purchase.
Opened SCAL (Sure Cuts A Lot) and the Ornate Frame. Pulled out the largest frame and deleted the rest. Flipped, squeezed and elongated it and resized it to approx 7"w x 5"h. Copy & paste, then flip top to bottom. Move to join with the first frame, overlapping slightly, weld together. Cut from white cardstock. Then score through the joined point and the upper one at the half way point through those nodes on either side. You now have your easel structure.
Copy and paste one of the frames from page 1 to page 2, keeping it the same size.
Paste 2 more of them and while in the same configuration as the original frame - resize them to 5.695" x 4.002 & 4.628" x 3.248" then move and orientate them on your mat to be cut from white cardstock

The next layer was colored with Distress Oxide pads direct to paper ("Twisted Citron" and a bit of "Cracked Pistachio") then dry embossed with Cuttlebug "Swiss Dots" embossing folder. High points hit with "Peacock Feathers"
Top layer: Quote stamped with Versafine Clair "Twilight" and embossed with Emerald Creek Seth Apter "Eclipse" embossing powder, then sponged with Distress Oxides all over with "Broke China" and "Mermaid Lagoon". Dampened a paper towel and wiped of inks from the quote area.
Added a circle the same size as rose (2.122" sq). copied and pasted 3 more and cut from the decorated cardstock below. Adhered the outlines to the decorated circles and adhered 2 of them the card front.
Opened the Happy Birthday Gear Box, ungrouped (do it several times) then delete all the misc pieces, then delete the gears above and below the Happy Birthday. Move to mat and enlarge to 5.701" x 1.356". Flip from left to right (you need a backward image for next step). Cut from white cardstock. While still on mat, apply a very thin bead of glue to each letter - careful, don't get glue on other areas... then press the decorated cardstock used for flowers onto the letters. Allow to dry a couple minutes then remove from mat and trim down to fit card floor.
Scored and adhered the rose to act as my stopper.
Adhered the Happy Birthday panel, then adhered the last rose splicing to fit and used the left over and attached to stopper.
