Winning ticket birthday card


I love this card. My stamp camp group asked for birthday cards, so this is one of the three we will be doing this month. I really love the sentiment on the inside done with the Early Espresso and Island Indigo Stampin' Write markers. I cased this card front from Stampin' Connection (A Stampin' Up! demonstrator only forum) from a demonstrator, Heidi King. Thank you Heidi for the great card. I did make the following changes. I cut out the elephant element instead of tearing, I used the natural trim ribbon. I also embossed the card front with the Stripes folder and added the Apothecarty accent die (cut shorter) and the candy dots. I also changed the card front to Early Espresso and Island Indigo.

Mosaic Birthday

Don't you just love the the fact that we have a stamp set, embossing folder and punch that coordinate together? I cased this card from a fellow demonstrator, you can view her card here. Thank you Ilina for the great card. I did change the Crisp Cantaloupe to Strawberry Slush, changed the card base and changed the sentiment.

You can make this fun card at this months stamp camp. This card features the new yummy in colors. The small flower inserts were punched with the Itty Bitty Shape punch then placed on the Stampin' pierce mat. Then with the stylus, gently push in the center, so that the petals pop up.

I will be adding the two other projects in the next few days.
