Finally, I added a Delightful Dijon mini-flower (using the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack) with a tiny Rhinestone in the center.

Build a Birthday.... Happy Birthday


I am in love with the new In Colors!!  I have to admit....  it always takes me a little while to warm up to the new In Colors, but once I start playing with them....  it's all over!!

That was certainly the case as I made this card!!

 
 
We start our card with a Cucumber Crush (one of the new In Colors) card base, then added a layer of Whisper White card stock.  We rounded the corners of both of these layers using our Project Life Corner Rounder Punch.

To make the cake, we started with the bottom layer first.  We stamped the cake pedestal (from the Build a Birthday Stamp Set) in Tip Top Taupe ink (another new In Color), then added strips of the Cherry on Top Designer Series Paper Stack to create the layers on our cake.  On the top, we stamped that cute banner (also from the Build a Birthday Stamp Set) in Cucumber Crush ink, and on the bottom, we stamped "birthday wishes"..

For a finishing touch, we added some cute little flowers (in Bermuda Bay, Cucumber Crush, Crushed Curry and Watermelon Wonder) using our Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack and also placed a Pearl in the center of each flower.  What a fun card!!

Friendly Wishes... You're the Friend Everyone Wishes They Had


So, I think this is a card that everyone would love to receive!!  Don't you agree??
It's the perfect sentiment for a special friend!! 
Who would you send this card to??  Leave a comment below and let me know!!


We start this fabulous card with a Blackberry Bliss card base, then added a layer of Delightful Dijon card stock embossed with our new Boho Chic Embossing Folder.  I love how the triangles in the embossing folder compliment the dashes/arrows on the Designer Series Paper.

Next, we added a square layer of Bermuda Bay card stock and layered that with a Very Vanilla piece.  We stamped "You're the Friend Everyone Wishes They Had" (from the Friendly Wishes Stamp Set) in Bermuda Bay ink, colored in the heart with our Blackberry Bliss Stampin' Write Marker, then added a strip of the new Bohemian Designer Series Paper beside the sentiment.
