In honor of celebrating my First Blogaversary, I've done a birthday card to share with you this morning. Since it didn't do any good to make cards while my computer was on the blink (no way to download the photos or post them), I spent a lot of time making my favorite ribbon flowers and getting my stash stocked up again. I also tied a lot of ribbon bows! I used some of those on today's card.
I used a Spellbinders die to cut the patterned dp, and punched the corners of the CS matting the sentiment. Nothing difficult or complicated about the rest of it since the ribbon flowers and the bow were ready after my marathon of flower making for the last couple of weeks.
Challenges for this card:
Anything Goes Challenge -- Bingo: make own flowers, your choice (die cuts), bling
Celebrate the Occasion -- Birthday Anything Goes
Crafty Sentiments -- Let's Get Girly
Creative Craft -- Bingo: 4 corners; ribbon, flowers, gems, blue
Hybrid Chick -- ribbon (in the flowers and the bow)
Operation Write Home -- Cut It Out
Outlawz Greeting Card Challenge -- Anything Goes
Pile It On -- For a 'Tween
Sassy Studio Designs -- Birthday
Sew Many Cards -- Birthday
Squigglefly -- Birthday
Sundays with Crissy -- Birthday
Truly, Madly Crafty -- Ribbon and bling
I hope your day is wonderfully creative. Feel free to browse around while you're here and don't forget to leave me a comment, and tell me a story about your own 'grammy' on the First Blogaversary posting, here. Your name could be drawn for the blog candy!
Happy Stamping. NanaConnie
The image is from Mo's Digital Pencil (where there's a bingo challenge this week -- gems, ribbon, & flowers), fussy cut and adhered to a die cut square of purple CS. I used a sketch from Card Positioning Systems. The colors came from the inspiration photo at Sketchy Colors.
