This week is a week of birthdays at our house! Both of my boys have birthdays in the span of 4 days so there is a lot of gifts, good food and cake in our house right now. I used a combo of older and new supplies to make this star filled birthday card for my oldest.
This panel of Bright & Beautiful DSP (which is a carryover from the last Annual Catalog that you can find in the Online Store) seemed like a fun inspiration to get this card started. I pulled my base color, Blueberry Bushel, from it and then added a panel of the same color embossed with the Dotted Circles embossing folder so you can see some texture peeking out the sides.
The sentiment is from Heartfelt Hexagons and is stamped in Blueberry Bushel ink and then punched with the Heartfelt Hexagon punch. I punched a second hexagon to be a base for the cake.
I used the cake from the Attention Shoppers stamp set and then colored it in with Blends markers adding a tiny little bit of gold Wink of Stella for the flames. Once it was colored I fussy cut the cake (because I totally forgot there was a die for it!) and popped it on the the hexagon with dimensionals.
A long retired star punch was used to punch out a few more stars in some of the DSP colors. I colored them with clear Wink of Stella so they have a nice sparkle to them in real life. The stars are all added to the card front with dimensionals too.
All of the current supplies used to make this card can be purchased in my ONLINE STORE.
