Happy Birthday


My parents went out to lunch with friends this afternoon so that gave me a chance to sneak down to my craft room and play! I made this birthday card for my stash. I stamped my birdies and colored them with Copics (I seem to do that a lot lately, huh?) and then I layered them up on a bunch of Authentique Splendid papers. The birdies come with a sentiment but I just love the whimsical fonts in the Paper Smooches Sentiment Sampler set that I chose one from there. Some fun pom pom trim and brown twine tie it all together (hee, hee).

I'm going to try and sneak in a few loads of laundry while they are gone and the mailman just brought me another big box full of new papers and ribbons from i {heart} papers that I would love to dig into too! Thanks for stopping by!

stamps: Sentiment Sampler (Paper Smooches), Happy Chick Birthday (Unity)
ink: memento rich cocoa (Tsukineko)
paper: very vanilla, early espresso (SU!); Splendid DP (Authentique)
accessories: brown pom pom trim (Maya Road); brown twine string (Creative Impressions); Copic sketch markers
