Girlie Birthday Wishes…
Here is a card that we did at my recent card class, sometimes you just need a girlie birthday card.

The base of the card is Pretty in Pink, followed by a layer of Whisper White and a layer of Melon Mambo. Then I used the Subtles pattern stack designer series paper, stamped the saying in Basic Black and attached that to the rest of the card. I used the flower from Flower Fancy and stamped the outside in Basic Black and the inside in Melon Mambo. I punched out the edge using the scallop border punch, tied the Pretty in Pink grosgrain ribbon and added a few pop dots.
Supplies:
- Flower Fancy and On Your Birthday stamp sets
- Pretty in Pink, Melon Mambo and Whisper White card stock
- Subtles pattern stack designer series paper
- Basic Black and Melon Mambo ink pads
- Scallop border punch
- Pretty in Pink grosgrain ribbon and pop dots

Sketch Frenzy Friday!!!!
Friday is here, time for this week's sketch:

Here is what I created for this week:

I just love this little snowman from Jolly Old Saint Nick stamp set, he is just cute!! The base of the card is Real Red card stock, then I ran a piece of Whisper White card stock through the Big Shot using the Northern Flurry embossing folder. Then I took the 1/4" Marnia Mist ribbon and wrapped it around the back. I added three silver Glimmer Basic brads, these are a must have item, they are way worth it!!!!! Finally I stamped the snowman in Basic Black ink and colored him with SU markers, punched him out the Decorative Label extra large punch. Then I punched out two labels from Real Red card stock and I cut one of them vertically and attached it the side of the other punch to make the sides larger. Put the snowman on the top added a little ribbon loop and finally pop dots.
Supplies:
- Jolly Old Saint Nick stamp set
- Real Red & Whisper White card stock
- Basic Black ink pad
- SU Markers ~ Real Red and Marnia Mist
