Freshly Made Birthday

Holy smokes - there are some adorable samples over at this week's Freshly Made Sketch #123!  I HAD to get in on this one!
After digging through the "stamp stash" for some element ideas, I finally settled on A Fitting Occasion.  I sorta wonder if this one might be one that retires this year, not that I'm ever any good at making predictions, lol!
So, I stayed pretty literal on the sketch layout, but added a lot of color.  Turns out, the second smallest circle in the Circles Collection Framelits is just a HAIR bigger than the 1" Circle Punch - just enough to add that tiny little edge of color - yay!
And no, before you ask, I did NOT remember to stamp that little row of candles on the envelope as I was making the card front - I had to go back and do them after, sigh.  Still, I love how it came out!
A Fitting Occasion & Perfect Pennants stamp sets; Whisper White, Real Red, Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Bermuda Bay, Tempting Turquoise & Rich Razzleberry CS & Inks; 1/8" Taffeta in Real Red; Basic Jewel Rhinestones; 1" Circle Punch; Circles Collection Framelits.

Don't forget, the call is open for our Burlap & Blooms Wreath Class, on Thursday, February 27th, 630 pm!  All materials and kits provided for you for $20, but you'll want to bring a bone folder and your hot glue gun for sure, if you have one.  RSVP NOW to let me know you are coming, so I can make sure to have your kit waiting!  And of course, let me know if you prefer a daytime class, and we will set it up!
