Bright and Sunny Birthday (CQC#83 MOJO#189)


Hi there! My little Ev is sick (poor baby!) so I'm home and had time to play while he naps. I decided to combine 2 challenges on this card: colourQ #83 and Mojo Monday #189. I really LOVE this sketch! I'll probably have to make another card with it, if I can eke out the time...... 
So, I created the tag with a glittered tag rim and paper piecing using this cute cupcake stamp from Inkadinkado.  For the Happy Birthday sentiment behind the tag, I used another stamp from Inkadinakado. In retrospect, I wish I would have stamped the top "Happy Birthday" in Peach Parfait instead of Daffodil Delight, I think it would have created a nicer contrast than having the top stamped in yellow. Oh well, such is life, huh? I found this yellow vellum tag in my VERY old stash. The card is not as "coral" as it looks in the photos, definitely more orange/tangerine in person. 


I hope you have a stellar day! I'll try to be back very soon:)

Your comments make my day! :) I've found it's easiest for me to return comments 1-2 times per week, so it might be a few days, but I WILL get over to your blogs and see what awesome things you've been up to. Thanks SO MUCH for popping by, blog friends!
