Trellis Card Delight – A Late Feature Worth the Wait!

Made by Deirdre McKenzie

Creativity knows no timeline, and today, I’m thrilled to finally feature this breathtaking Trellis Card, crafted by the talented Deirdre McKenzie and inspired by Brandy Cards. Originally created for a card swap in February 2023, this piece exudes charm, elegance, and a beautifully layered floral aesthetic.

Despite a delay in getting photos, this beauty is well worth the wait! Let’s dive into the details of Deirdre’s artistry.

A Design Steeped in Elegance

The Trellis Card brings together delicate elements with a striking color palette. Set against a crisp white base, the card features bold purple stripes, creating a striking contrast. The centerpiece—a lush purple flower with a bright yellow center—is a vibrant focal point that radiates warmth.

Enhancing its beauty, Deirdre has included a delicate green leaf, tying in natural tones that soften the composition. The purple “HAPPY Birthday” lettering adds a celebratory feel, while two playful butterfly accents flutter delicately around the design, creating movement and whimsy.

Each element seamlessly blends style and emotion, making this card a heartfelt gesture for a special birthday.
