Birthday Wrap Up!

Get it?  Birthday theme wrap up - like you wrap up a birthday present?  Well I thought it was clever.

Today I am going to share with you the last of the birthday themed cards for this week.  I've used several different products from several different companies.  I was very pleased with how each of the turned out.


The first card was made using Ken Oliver's Color Bursta Tim Holtz Stencil, and a stamp set from Stamps of Life.  I used the Color burst and some water to create a fun t-shirt with a Happy Birthday sentimnt.  Then I used stencil with the leftover Color Burst to create the background for the card.  Check out my video:





I used the Dahlia set from Fun Stampers Journey along with the matching dies to create this birthday card.  I used my Zig Clean Brush Markers to color the flowers.  I gave this card to my daughter for her 21st birthday.


And last, but not least I used the Crazy Birds Stamp set from Tim Holtz to create a fun card for Diane who is turning ?? tomorrow.  I also had to add googly eyes because these birds just scream for googly eyes.  I colored the birds with my Zig Clean Brush Markers - you knew I did!  This card was entered into the challenge at Seize the Birthday.

So that wraps up birthday week.  I hope you got some fun ideas.  Tune in next week for a special thank you card from a special girl.  And next week's theme - thank you.

Have a great day and be inspired.
