Clean and Simple Birthday Wishes

Stamps: Penny Black sentiment. Cardstock: Black, My Mind's Eye 'Party Time'. Ink: Versamark. Accessories: Detail white EP, 1 1/8" circle punch.

One more card to add to my birthday card stockpile! This CAS design was inspired by Tuesday Morning sketch #29. I used the sketch exactly as drawn with no embellishments (not even ribbon!); it's the glitter DP that adds some pizzazz:


It could almost be a masculine card, couldn't it?

Remember to wish big; I'm wishing for the rain and fog to go away! Stay tuned for tomorrow's Saturday Spotlight challenge -- it's sure to brighten your day!!

  1. I think the CAS cards are one of my faves to do and this one is a definite CASE. Perfect for a guy card and those are hard to do.

    Rain, rain go away!
