I have a very sweet birthday card to share with you today for a very sweet little girl. I was inspired by the sketch I saw over at Create with Connie and Mary. Check it out:
Okay so I should confess, I did rotate their sketch. I am sure the sideways words gave that away. Ha ha ha! Here is my card:
I used a lot of fun things in this card including my favorite color, Mint Macaron! I love how it pairs with Blushing Bride. Instead of a flower, I decided to use the ice cream cone from the Sale-A-Bration set Honeycomb Happiness. It matches perfectly with the ice cream cone paper from the Birthday Bouquet DSP. I did run out of room for my sentiment so I took some vellum and embossed on the Happy Birthday from Perfect Pairings, another Sale-A-Bration set. Thanks for looking. Below I have a complete supply list.
Great idea to flip the sketch! Love the embossed vellum and that cute little ice cream cone. A truly delightful card! Thanks for joining us this week at Create with Connie and Mary.
