What a busy month for birthdays, another card taken from a weekly sketch challenge using the Sale-a-Bration sets “Happy Moments” and “Whimsical Words”. You can earn these sets free when you spend £45 from the Catalogue. There are 4 exclusive sets to choose from, email me for more information.
I stamped directly onto the Whisper White cardstock with both the image and greeting and coloured the cake using my blender pens with ink from the ink pad lids. For interest I added 1/4″ circles in Whisper White to create an embossed look. My flower was cut using the Scallop Circle Punch and layered with the 1″ and 3/4″ circles and Linen Thread wrapped around them. I attached a piece of 1 1/4 Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon in Rose Red and topped it with a Scallop Border Punch strip. I inked all edges with Chocolate Chip using a dauber.
