Always A Birthday


I finally got to stamp a card!! Things have been quite crazy around here!!! I have not had a chance to stamp or visit any blogs or even keep up with my email!!!

Here is the card that I just made for a friend's birthday! I had to make it so that it would go out with the mail today!!! All products are from Stampin' Up except were noted! I used the Always and It's Your Birthday stamp sets! I used pretty in pink, mellow moss, whisper white, and chocolate chip card stock. I used my mellow moss and pretty in pink markers to color in the flower. I then cut it out and mounted it on to the same heart stamped in chocolate chip with dimensionals. (I love how the heart turned out!) I then layered that onto some mellow moss. I stamped the saying in mellow moss and punched it out with my 1 3/8 circle punch. I mounted that with dimensionals to a mellow moss punched out scallop circle. And then used the dimensionals again to attach that to the background. The background is embossed with the Cuttle Bug Perfect Paisley folder. The ribbon is 5/8 grosgrain in chocolate chip. That is all layered onto a piece of chocolate chip. I also inked up some of the edges with chocolate chip ink. I used the ticket corner punch on all of the corners!

Thanks for looking and have a fantastic day!!!
