Our Featured Stamper today is cnsteele. I always love seeing Nicole's bright and cheerful cards in the gallery. Have you seen her latest ones from the VSN Mini? Fabulous! I have a friend that asked me if I could make a card for her niece who is turning 12 and I was stumped until I found this card in Nicole's gallery. I just thought it was so fun and a great excuse to use a favorite birthday sentiment--"The more candles, the bigger the wish." So I stamped, colored, and ScanNCut 12 candles. And I realized that they would look better if I made a long card. I kept the bright green background and the ribbon behind the candles. And added a short strip of rhinestone trim, because I'm always trying to challenge myself to add just one more thing. I think this card is so fun. Thanks, Nicole, for the inspiration. I love your cards!

Your friend's 12 yo niece will love this bright card! The glittery, swirled background is the perfect background for all those candles. Even the swirly font of your sentiment fits the mood! Thank you for your very sweet and kind words - it is flattering to have you case one of my cards!
