Welcome! I hope you had a wonderful weekend with lots of time for stamping. I spent Sunday in my stamp room and am starting the week with a birthday card created from the sketch at Stamping 411.
….and the Color Challenge from Create with Connie and Mary.
…. and, here is what I came up with.
I decided to create my own designer paper by using the images in the “Bordering On Romance” stamp set from the Occasions Mini Catalogue(page 11). Flower-y isn’t it?!
I used Blender Pens to color the flower images and added the birthday sentiment from “Happiest Birthday Wishes(Idea Book & Catalogue page 10). Check out the pretty brad – it’s from the Designer Printed Brads 2011-2013 In Color Collection(page 199 big catty).
