Happy Birthday



I know, what a very unoriginal blog post title! However, inspiration wasn't forthcoming and I've only a little bit of time to pop in and share a quick card. I used the Sweet Sunday Sketch this week to make this bright and happy card. Lots of patterned paper, which is unusual for me, but I've just had a delivery of some new My Mind's Eye paper pads and wanted to use them.



The sentiment is from another delivery which popped through my door this morning - the latest Waltzingmouse Stamps sentiment set - Say It Loud. Great for using the sentiment as the main focal point.



Over the paper panels I laid a transparency I've had in my stash for a while but thought went really well with the papers.

Off to make preparations for my Mum's birthday tea now.

  4. Don't make me jealous! I'm waiting for that very WMS set! Looks beautiful here, though. Fabulous card (you should do patterned papers more often; you do them so well!).
