Birthday Cards and More







I am playing along with CAS(E) this Sketch and Tag You're it, who have joined forces this week.  How fun is that? 


I made a card with a tag, and then a coordinating tag to wrap up a little parcel of cards as a birthday gift.



The challenge at this week's Make it Monday is all about creative card borders.  I used Topiary Trio stamps and dies for my card.






I loved the colors of this week's ColourQ cQc #253 and immediately rushed to make a card inspired by these cards by Lisa of Lisa's Life Lines.  She called them "split cards" and I just thought they were so cool.  Lisa used patterned paper, but I decided to stamp my own patterned paper using Circle Scribbles.




Part of the front is cut away, and the pattern is actually on the base.



4 layers of Wet Paint die cut word 'happy'.



Here is what it looks like opened up.


Fun, right?  I could see making a set of these with a bunch of the Wet Paint die cut words.



I am going to enter all three of these cards into this week's Seize the Birthday--anything goes without toppings.  I sure hope I have a chance to make a yellow birthday card before the linky ends on this challenge.


Last is a card I made using a Cottage stamp from Serendipity.  I thought that the theme was CAS, but when I looked again (after I already made the card), I realized that the theme is actually I Miss You.  I think this card could  probably work for that theme--I miss you and want you home sweet home.  I stamped the Cottage Image on water color paper cut with a stitched rectangle, and then water colored it.



That's it for me today.


Thanks for Visiting
