Here's a little bit more about the card in Kelly's words:
One of the many reasons that I love clear stamps is that you can
manipulate them by bending them for different looks. In this case, I
loved the idea of a giraffe bending down to blow out a candle, so I just
bent the giraffe from Critters on the Savanna's neck, and I was able to
get that look! So fun! I stamped the cake from Year Three also, cut
them out and adhered them on to a card covered in some cute papers from
the Daphne's Closet 6x6 pad. I used Riley's ABCs for a custom sentiment.
I just love doing that!
(Alter your stamps to fit your project!)
I thought this fun party
needed a banner so I used one from the Daphne's Closet element stickers.
I just popped it up on some foam adhesive for some dimension. Stickers
are so fun!
I made an envelope to
match using papers from the Daphne's Closet collection kit and the Martha Stewart mini scoring board. I adhered a Daphne's Closet sticker
for a perfect place to write the address!
Thank you so much to Simon for having me again! Don't forget to wish big! :)
