A Trio of Birthday Cards


I've got a trio of birthday cards today--still feeling pretty patriotic after July 4th...


I played with some new stamps and dies from PTI--Paper Clippings: Birthday for my first 2 cards. This card is inspired by the current sketch at Freshly Made Sketches #244, where I turned the sketch on its side. 


My red, white and blue color scheme is inspired by challenges at Curtain Call:  Cherry Bomb, CAS-ual Fridays #151 and Simon Says Monday.







I stamped a couple of these cake towers while I had everything set up in my Misti.


I am entering this birthday card at Addicted to Stamps and More #201: Anything Goes.



I pulled out a super oldie--PTI Spring Doodles for my last birthday card today.  


I am entering this card at CAS on Sunday #86:  Black and white and one other color, Inkspirational #112: Anything Goes with Red, and Seize the Birthday where the toppings are bees, birds and butterflies.







Thanks for Visiting

  8. Hiya Joyce!!! Oh how I love all of these, but the first one is killer fabulous. I love the offset red oval. It goes beautifully with the shape of the blue banner. The stars are perfectly placed. I LOVE IT! I love the colors of the cake on care #2, and I love that you've tilted it. The embossed background is perfect, as are the sequins. #3 is fantastic too.
