May 23, 2015 | Birthday |
Today I am wishing Happy Birthday to a dear friend. One of the cards she will be receiving is below.

It uses the new Cherry On Top Deisgner Series pear Stack along with the new coordinating Watermelon Wonder card stock. These are so bright and cheerful that they make fun birthday cards. And, I couldn't resist this laughable sentiment from the Photopolymer stamp set Just Kidding. The Whisper White standard sized base card is embossed with the Large Polka Dot Embossing Folder. It does not show up well in the picture.

The sentiment is stamped with Island Indigo Ink & cut out with the soon to be retired Word Bubbles Framelits. I matted this on another design from the Cherry On Top Designer Series Paper Stack & just trimmed it by hand leaving a thin border. If you look closely, you will see that I rounded 2 of the corners of both the Whisper White card stock & the Watermelon Wonder Mat.

The sentiment on the inside of the card is from Yippee – Skippee which is also retiring on June 2nd. The strip of paper on the inside matched the matt for the Word Bubble on the front of my card.
As you can see in the first picture, the flap of the envelope is also covered with matching paper from the Cherry On Top Designer Series Paper Stack.

Stippled Blossom is such a fun & easy set to use & it produces such a nice finished card with minimal effort. This card was created with Tempting Turquoise & Daffodil delight Ink for my flowers. The solid images have been inked and stamped off while the image wit the shaing has been stamped full strength.

The sentiment can be found in Butterfly Basics. The font just seemed to fit perfectly with my flowers. It is stamped with Early Espresso Ink. For the leaves, I stamped the solid image in Pear Pizazz Ink & the detail with Wild Wasabi Ink.

Of course, the final addition are some Pearl Basic Jewels.
This stamp set is appropriate for many occasions and it is definitely a set that I am keeping. If you would like it too, be sure to get it before it retires June 2.
