Birthday Wishes!

I wanted to play with the new Sale-A-Bration set So Many Scallops and I needed to make a birthday card at the same time. I also pulled in the new decorative papers "Afternoon Tea." They are SO pretty! Some of the papers in it remind me of Grandma's wallpaper! I thought this was a fun paper even though I have a lot of problems working with papers that have large items on it. For this one it was the flowers but I did manage to work with them and I think the card turned out ok. On the background of the green on the top I used the new "Twill" background stamp. I inked it up with Chocolate Chip and I stamped off once and then stamped on top of the card stock. I think it was River Rock. I need to write down what I use on a card as I'm making it!!!

I'm SO glad the spell checker is working on here again. It was SO difficult to try to make sure I spell everything correctly as I typed it. I usually just type and take care of anything I mess up along the way later. I can type much faster that way.

I'm off to finish up my swap cards for next week. I will share them with you here after the swap. They are "top secret" right now!!! LOL

All products on this card are Stampin' Up! materials. Click here to find more cards and projects that are made entirely of Stampin' Up! materials.

Hey Wanda, I agree about the large flowered paper.....I have a hard time, too, but this worked out great!
The shading helps coordinate the paper & the stamped image!

I love the way you used ribbon both as a border and leaves for the flower. You are so good at sponging your cards too which really makes them stand out! TFS another great card!
