Birthday Wishes

Lindsay with you today, to share a fun little card with you, using one of our newest sets, Sweet Birthday.  I also paired it with Good Times. 

To start, I adhered a lovely piece of gold cardstock onto a white card base.  Cutting a panel of white cardstock, I masked and stamped a cluster of balloons, and taking a black multi-liner, created the strings.  Lastly, I stamped the banner, cut it out and added a sentiment from the Sweet birthday set.  

Thanks for stopping by the blog today!  I hope you find some time to get crafty with your stamps!

Paper: Marshmallow Bazzill, Gold Michaels

Stamps: Good Times, Sweet Birthday The Craft's Meow

Birthday Greetings

Hello friends!  Lin here, with a birthday card, since it's our birthday month here at The Craft's Meow!

I stamped the open horizontal chevrons from our Geometric Foundations stamp set onto 4 different colors of solid and printed papers from Graphic 45 Secret Garden Patterns and Solids paper pad, then cut the chevrons apart and repositioned them to form these vertical chevrons.  I lifted a few of them here and there to give some added interest and dimension, and added some adhesive jewel stickers to the top of each column:

Then I just stamped the birthday sentiment from Stitched Sentiments and colored in the letters with markers that matched my colors.  

I hope my card inspires you to try something a little different with your stamps, too.   Please visit The Craft's Meow Store  to see these and more of our beautiful stamp sets. While you're there, be sure to visit our new Gallery to find lots more inspiration from my TCM teamies!   Enjoy your day!
