5 Birthdays

· 12 Comments

Ahhh, children’s birthdays and the thrill of a challenge. Or two.

I need to make a birthday card for a friend whose daughter is turning five. That’s a special birthday. I needed a special card.

I liked the card layout at Fab Friday –

I needed a girly card, I needed a girly colors. Those came from Nacho Average Challenges –

Lovely girly colors that gave me direction. Here is the combination of my challenges today –
libbystamps, Stampin' Up, stampinup, NAC 154, FabFri70, Watercolor Words Stamp Set, Writing Notes Stamp, Silver Glimmer Paper,
It’s adorable, right? I know I love it. So will she.

I used the Writing Notes large background stamp – I had never played with. It became my starting point.

I added the sentiment from Watercolor Words (sorry, stamped image not the best) and I decided the flowers from that set would work too. I stamped, five of course, and cut each one out.

Another shot to show how the flowers and ‘5’ are popped up. I added retired ribbon and retired numbers as well. Done. Call this a birthday card!

Happy Stampin’

    Absolutely adorable! I love how this super-fun card was inspired by the sketch. I know it was adored by a little five year old. Thanks for playing along with this Fab Friday sketch challenge.
