I'm not in the habit of making myself a birthday card.
In fact I {never} have.
That isn't what I set out to do.
I received my new stamps and dies in the mail and sat down to just play around with them.
I die cut the letters, stamped them in some deliciously sherbert-y colors,
and then sugar coated them.
Funny thing is my birthday isn't until September,
but when it comes around I'll remember to wish big!
Don't forget to check out the File.
I also started a new board for all the crafty products out there that are on my growing wish list.
Cardstock: PTI White
Stamps: PTI Stylish Sentiments: Birthday
Ink: PTI Simply Chartreuse, Harvest Gold, Berry Sorbet, Aqua Mist, Smokey Shadow
Dies: PTI Headline Alphabet
I was ready to wish you happy birthday today! Happy early birthday...your card is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful! You are my CAS (and beautiful) queen!!! Remember to tell us what you wished for in September (-:
ReplyDeleteLove it! Happy colors, and the name above the sentiment is a cool design.
ReplyDeleteFantastic CAS layout - pinning this for future inspiration!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Those letters are delicious!
ReplyDeleteThat is a fun card Kara, and it could be for a congrats card, so enjoy it, you deserve it. Isn't it just fun to play? Happy March and have a fun day!
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe that I didn't get either any of that on my last order...this is fabulous and I can see so many different and fun sentiments that I can use to CASE your card!!
ReplyDeleteFantastic card Kara, LOVE those letters and your design is fab!
ReplyDeleteGreat card. Love the splash of color among all the white space. What did you use for the stripes on the letters?
ReplyDeleteIt was the striped stamp from stylish sentiments birthday! :)
DeleteEarly PTI birthday presents are the best kind of presents! Such a fresh card!
ReplyDeleteOh, my. What a great idea. This card is wonderful. I think you should give it to DH, so he can give it to you on your birthday. After all, you wouldn't want him spending good money at Hallmark, when you could be using that money to buy stamps. I think making your own birthday card is a wonderful idea--I pretty much make all the cards that Peter gives to me.
ReplyDeleteLove it! Such a fantastic idea to customize it with the die cut letters:) Have a great weekend Kara!
ReplyDeleteDid you stamp the diecut letters with the striped stamp from SS: Birthday? What a fabulous idea and great card, Kara!
ReplyDeleteYup! :)
DeleteYou have proven EXACTLY why I didn't order the letter stamps with the dies. Don't need 'em. LOVE, love your stamped letters, and your design is just impeccable!
ReplyDeleteLOVE it!!
ReplyDeleteAnd those letters...
SO glad I got the goods to CASE this one! :)
I would have never thought to use those stripes like that...
but now I will! :)
Awesome design!! Now I know I should have gotten those letters! Love how you did the stripes!
ReplyDeleteAwesome card. Great layout.Love all the colors.
ReplyDeleteToo funny! Love it! Great card and gorgeous design ,love the stripes!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, Kara. Love the CAS card. Wish you the best.
ReplyDeleteHappy Belated Birthday! Hope that you had a wonderful one. Beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet, perfectly CAS card! The glitter looks amazing on those letters!
ReplyDeleteAwesome birthday card Kara! Love this idea. I just had my birthday yesterday so you can just swap the K for an S and send it my way. LOL!!!
