Springtime Birthday

Photo Details

Poster: stampin'nana

For today's WT: use green. This started out to be a Valentine for my DH, but as it progressed, I knew it would be too feminine for a guy card. So it will go to my SIL instead. The only stamp is the sentiment, sponged around it and the card base plus the flowers and petals. Added a flower brad and popped it up. The DP was a gift from my friend Bridget Finlay. Thanks, Bridget....I love it! And thank you for stopping by today! ~Roberta

I can see how it started as a Valentine's with the hearts, but I'm sure your SIL will just love it, and you can have fun coming up with another design for your DH.

This is cute..I like how you did the tumbling squares of dp....neat idea. That rosy poesy flower matches just right with the dp and I love it on the dot embossed bg. Ya..too girly for your DH but your SIL will love it!

You used the dp so prettily the way you've got the hearts pattern worked in with the layered squares, Roberta! I like that shade of green with red and cream and your red flower adds that touch of dimension!! Lovely delicate sponging too!

Your dp works so well for this sketch! You don't even realize the only stamped image is the sentiment! This turned out to be a very sweet, feminine birthday card.
