Happy Birthday! (Blog Candy!!)

So this week Squigglefly was having a blog challenge to make a Birthday card. I took one of their newest stamps called Birthday Girl by Gemma Mortlock and the nicest lustre cardstocks from Paper Temptress to make a great Birthday card.


Here's a close up of the beautiful papers from Paper Temptress, they are all shimmery Mica Cardstocks papers, the base is called Flame and the red is Jupiter. I did the Digi-Stamp on Neenah Solar White, which prints wonderfully through my printer. The awesome butterflies are die cuts using cutters from CC Designs and textured Ruche paper called Black Crepe.
Be sure and make a fun card for the Squigglefly Challenge card this week using a birthday theme. Check out the store and the Squigglefly Site to see the Newest Releases this week. The Newest Releases will all be shown on the very first page. To be eligible for the prize, tell me which of the new release images is your favorite. The winner will get a prize from Squigglefly!! Winner announced Wed. (Winner's choice will be three stamps--or stamp sets--from anywhere on the Squigglefly site!!)


Don't forget to tell me your favorite of the new releases when you leave your comment, there's just over two dozen images to pick from! WINNER--Lorraine! You can go to the Squigglefly website and pick any three stamps (or stamp sets!) from their entire website, just email me your choices! htondre@aol.com

Project Materials: Cardstock (Paper Temptress); Image (Squigglefly); Saying (Rubon); DieCut (Border-Nestabilities; Butterfly-CC Designs); Color (Copic Markers); Adhesives (Pop dots, Glue All, Glue Dots); Punch (Martha Stewart); Ink (Colorbox Chalk);

Hi Holley,
That's a great birthday card! I looked at the Squigglefly images, and it's hard to pick a favorite. I guess since I have to pick, I'll choose the cute little bunny playing the violin.

What a beautiful card. I love the butterflies. They look so delicate and soft. As far as the stamps, I have to go with the beauty of pine.

Trish said...

Hi Holley- what a beautiful card- the birthday girl would be ideal for my little grandaughter, Katie is 1 tomorrow!! I love the colour combo of orange and red, I've never tried that yet. TFS
Re- Squigglefly images, it's another difficult choice. I'm loving the dog with the heart balloons, but I also really love the sentiment 'Don't cry because it's over, Smile because it's happened'
Hugs,
Trish xx
