It's Friday of Our Big Stamping Event...Yeah!!

Although I am concentrating on Christmas crafting now, we still need the every day cards for our family and friends! So here is a fun birthday card that I made recently.

The card is on Calypso Coral (one of the In Colours that we will lose next May 31st...if you love this colour, get your paper, ribbon, and ink pad re-inker soon so you don't miss out!). I layered it with Wild Wasabi and the Daffodil Delight from the Polka Dot Parade DSP. There is another layer of Wild Wasabi about 1/3 the way from the bottom which I ran through the Big Shot with the Stripes Folder. Then I added a layer of Calypso Coral Ribbon and tied a bow. Next is another set of papers with the flowers on. The flowers are cut using the 2 biggest shapes on the Floral Fusion Sizzlet and the smallest is using the similar shape from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (pg 183). The top layer is Whisper White and so is the greeting, which is stamped with Calypso Coral with the stamp from Itty Bitty Banners and cut using the Bitty Banners Framelits (say that 3 times fast!!). I added 3 medium pearls for the flower centers and was really pleased with the result!

Hope it inspires you with your everyday card making!
