The theme for this month's Taylored Expressions Blog Hop is Goin' Green! We could choose to either use something recycled on our card or just use lots of green! I chose to use lots of green and create a fun birthday card. I also used this great sketch from Sankari:
Happy Birthday
I used some fun American Girl paper and I hope the effect is bright and cheery! There is actually glitter on the cake ribbon, candle flames, and Cuppie's cherry on his head. It is has much more sparkle in person.
Stamps: Sweet Celebrations (TE)
Ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento)
Cardstock: Harvest Gold, Stamper's Select White (PTI)
Patterned Paper: EK Success (American Girl)
Accessories: Buttons (Michaels), Glitter (Doodlebug, MM), Copic Markers
My younger daughter J also wanted to play along with the challenge:
Sending You Sunshine
Stamps: Garden Party (TE)
Ink: Memento
Cardstock: Simply Chartreuse, Vintage Cream (PTI)
Accessories: Taylor's Tiny Twinkles
Happy Hopping!
Chris
