Birthday Girl:
October is definitely a fantastic month for card makers. Not only does it incorporate World Card Making Day, but it's also Stampin' Up's! 20th Birthday. To celebrate, Stampin' Up! are offering a 20% discount on selected stamp sets with any $20 catty purchase (see details HERE).
Tonight's card was made using the Big Bold Birthday set which is one of the stamp sets on sale. I LOVE this set and use it as often as I can when making birthday cards. It's quite versatile and can also be used for Christmas, congratulations and new years cards just to name a few. The cup cake icing stamp is also great for using as clouds as well. I'm really happy with how this card turned out, and if memory serves, I think it's the first time I've used blush blossom cardstock. I can easily see it becoming a favourite.
Supplies:
* Big Bold Birthday Stamp Set.
* Blush Blossom, Close to Cocoa & Whisper White Cardstock.
* Blush Blossom & Close to Cocoa Stamp Pads.
* Slit Punch, Crop-a-dile, Whisper White Grosgrain Ribbon & Stampin' Dimensionals.
* I was lazy and simply used kindy glitz for the glitter effect.

Nerine love the shiny cupcake top! Very cute. Great colors. Blush blossom is always hard for me to use?
Fabulous card Nerine! I looove Blush Blossom especially with Artichoke and Rose Red!
I received my order today with this set in it. I'm really looking forward to playing. BTW, you've been tagged! See my blog for details.
