Good Morning and Happy Monday everyone!!!
It is time for a new challenge over at
This week's challenge is...
Red, White and Blue
seeing that my son will be celebrating his 10th birthday in just a few weeks I used this week's
sketch
and came up with this fun birthday card...
So here is what I did.... I started out with a Brown Kraft Cardstock base and added a mat of Peebles Let Freedom Ring pattern paper. Using my cameo and a star file from the Silhouette store, I cut 2 stars....one using the kraft and another one using some Bazzill blue. Since there is no white in my pattern paper, I added some white gel pen doodles (wanted to make sure I was following TKJ challenge) Again since this is for my son's 10th birthday I added the number's "1" and "0" using Tim Holtz Mini Numerals and popping them up using some foam adhesive.
Moving onto the sentiment and embellishments..
I wanted my sentiment to be on some Cream Twill Tape , so I stamped The Alley Way Stamp Wish BIG birthday sentiment using Stazon Black Ink directly onto the ribbon. Didn't it turn out awesome????? To finish my card up I added one of my favorite embellishments from The Kraft Outlet~ the Custom Fasteners. Two of the stickers that come with this set were a perfect match to my card!
So there you have it....my inspiration for this week's challenge.
I hope you have enjoyed my card and will play along with us!
As always I have linked all the supplies I used from The Kraft Outlet throughout my description. If you have not checked out the store yet....make sure you do! There is so much available, the prices are so reasonable and shipping is super fast!!!
Thanks so much for stopping by and have a GREAT Monday!!
