Make a Wish, Sweetie!

I have one more entry for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge and the colourQ Challenge.




My youngest niece turned 6, and this is the card I made for her birthday.


I've shown the card from two different angles to show the dimension, because it just isn't quite obvious enough from one side or the other.



The stamps and cupcake die are from My Creative Time.  I love the cute sentiments with this set!


I also used dies from Spellbinders, Papertrey Ink, and My Favorite Things.  The papers are a mixture; I'm not even sure which packs I pulled them from.  I know some of them are PTI, but not sure on them all.  The buttons are PTI in Sweet Blush, Hawaiian Shores, and Summer Sunrise.

Happy Happy Birthday

Hello and Happy Spring!  I can't tell you how much I'm loving the weather the past few days!  Of course, now it's supposed to rain all week, but seeing buds on the trees and flowers beginning to sprout always thrills me.

In the spirit of spring, I made a fun springy card for a friend at work.




I'm submitting this one to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge and the colourQ challenge.




I don't own any of the Stampin' Up inks, so I used the closest matches that I have [see list below].  I have never tried this 3-layer technique before, and I'm glad I finally did.  I love how it came out!  :)

Here's hoping for more sunny days soon!
