You're How Old?

 

I have been working on several cards this week, but just finished this particular one yesterday. I selected to post one that I am sending to my 14-year-old Granddaughter whose birthday is this week. It's hard to believe she is 14 thus the sentiment on the card. Using the CAS C&S sketch challenge for this week helped me quickly put this one together. The harder part was deciding on colours. I knew I wanted to use MFT Sensational Stitched Blooms and had to find what floral dies in the set would allow me to use 4 in a row as the sketch showed. I keep it monochromatic using SU Gingham Gala 6x6 DSP and Grapefruit  Grove CS which matched the gingham paper. The sentiment is by MFT Bitty Birthday Wishes stamped in Versafine Black ink. The black dots are from SU.


This will be all for today. We have family coming over for dinner and I still have to clean up a very messy craft desk!

Have a blessed week!

Blessings, Bernadette

Happy Birthday Wishes

 

Tonight I'm posting a card that I put together earlier this afternoon to link over at the TGIF Challenge. Since birthday cards are always needed, I chose to create another card for my stash. 



I haven't made a Banner card in a very long time. It seems like it's not even under my radar. This was the perfect opportunity to pull out some older punches, dies, and stamps and to create this particular one.

PRODUCTS USED:

Paper: MFT Birthday Brights 6x6, SU Granny Apple Green, Flirty Flaming, Neenah Solar White#110

MFT Bitty Birthday Wishes for the sentiment

Taylored Expressions Whimsical Wishes for the Cupcake

MFT Captions Alphabet Die-namics for the letters on the banner

SU Banner Punch, MFT Skinny Strips, A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Set

White Twin, SU Jewels

That will be all for this evening. Have a good Thursday tomorrow!

Blessings, Bernadette
