Good Saturday morning, peeps! Today's card is a CASE of Pat Fairless. We made it at our Thursday Card Group and Dottie provided the kit for us. The Friendly Hello Stamp Set and Designer Series Paper are retired from this year's Sale-A-Bration, but I'm sure you can find someone who has it for sale.
The "happy birthday" is from the A Grand Kid Stamp Set and Dottie had stamped it, embossed it and punched it out already with the Double Oval Punch. We did have to stamp the image and color it, however. I used the Ornate Floral 3D EF on a mat of Soft Succulent for underneath the DSP panels and mats. The ribbon is the 3/8" Open Weave in Soft Succulent.
The inside is simple and strictly from the Friendly Hello Stamp Set.
I'm entering my card in these challenges:
Double Trouble #105 Bring on the Green and I'm playing with Thing 1 and Thing 2, along with their partner Heart2Heart - Going Green Challenge.
I'm glad I have a spring card for you today because the upcoming weather sounds frightful in many places. Here in SWFL, we have a wind advisory and we'll be going from 85 degrees to 41. Yikes! Thanks for stopping by today and stay safe.
Sweet spring colors and happy little bird! Spring is the season to test our patience and give us hope all at the same time. The teenager of seasons :-) Thank you for joining the Allsorts Challenge.
