Paper Craft Crew

Color Challenge #183

OK… I’m totally loving the #imbringingbirthdaysback campaign started by Stampin’ Up! employee, Shannon West! Yesterday, I received my first birthday card and it was so awesome. Really, I would LOVE to send you a birthday card but in order to do that you need to email me your name, address & birthday. You can also visit www.facebook.com/sunnygirlscraps and send me your Birthday & Address.

Since I’m on board with the #imbringingbirthdaysback campaign, you’ll probably see LOTS of birthday cards over the next year. Here is this weeks card that I created for the Paper Craft Crew Color Challenge featuring Lost Lagoon, Old Olive, Smoky Slate and Blackberry Bliss. The stamp set I used is Party Wishes from the 2016 Stampin’ Up! Occasions Catalog.

My goal is quick, clean and easy to assemble. I started with a card front base of Blackberry Bliss layered with Whisper White. In the background, I stamped the cake with Smoky Slate with the Happy Birthday stamped using the Olive Green. Then I used Washi Tape at the base of the cake. Washi Tape is an easy to use and a great way for adding detail to a card.

The candles are stamped using the Blackberry Bliss and then punched out using the candle punch from the Party Punch Pack. As a finishing touch, I added a Designer Button tied with a piece of “thread” pulled off the the Smoky Slate Thick Bakers twine. This is a fun card, quick to make, and will be going into the mail tomorrow!

Here is this week’s Card Sketch with the Paper Craft Crew. If you are having a mental creative block, card sketches are a great way to kickstart your creative juices. Why not stop over at the Paper Craft Crew, create a card inspired by this week’s Card Sketch, and post it to the blog!
