Hello Stamping Friends,
I'm back today with a theme challenge from the fine folks over at Stampin' Up! Only Challenges, and their theme for these two weeks is birthdays!
What I love about this theme is that, we all make and send birthday cards to our loved ones...we always need birthday cards, right? So, why don't you let this challenge spur you on to make a birthday card and post it to the SUO blog? It's simple to do. ;-)
So, I had a piece of the new Bird Ballad designer series papers laying around along with this sentiment that I hadn't used yet, so I came up with this little ditty! I love how it turned out! I hope you enjoy it too, and even take my sketch idea and use it on your next card. (Remember to use up your scraps on the insides of your cards, too! It's so fun to see that pop of color or coordinating design when you open the card!)
I hope you have time to spend in your craft space this week and take time to build your creative confidence along with me!
Blessings,
barb
SUO Theme: Birthdays
My Card:
Basic Black card stock, Bird Ballad designer series paper, Piece Of Cake stamp set, Scalloped Lace Trim, Classic Label Punch, Layering Circles Dies, Stitched Shapes Dies, Stampin' Dimensionals
Isn't it amazing what a tiny bit of detail does for a card, especially when you have such a busy dsp design like this one. It doesn't take much to really finish it perfectly!
