Birthday Cake Emily

Happy Monday,

Hope you all had a great weekend.  So glad I got a chance to spend some time with some crafty peeps who came in from out of town.  First it was Jenny & Linda from Hawaii and then it was Sparkle, Thanh, Kim, Suzanne, Chris, Chuck, Kathy & Renate.  Yesterday I got to spend some time with my sis and her dh who drove down for a day but ended up staying for the weekend.  All-in-all I had a very nice weekend.

Today's card feature's the lovely Birthday Cake Emily from Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps.  (Sorry the store is currently on hiatus and as soon as it's back online I'll link up)

Kept it pretty CAS.  If you haven't noticed I'm trying to branch out by adding flowers here and there to my projects.  I purchased a bunch of flowers, but I have also been hoarding them as well, so hoping to figure out how to arrange them like some of my favorite ladies with green thumbs.  (hehe)  The flowers are partly Recollections & Petaloo.  Used a Spellbinder die to cut out the colored image  and adhered it to some leftover red cardstock.  Then the whole piece was glued down on to a white card base.  The sentiment along with another one comes with the stamp as a set.

Here is my card featuring Birthday Cake Emily...

Isn't she pretty?!  I love the whole design and that cake!!  I would love to have a slice of that chocolate cake!  hahaha!  This image also comes with two fun sentiments.  I kept the card very CAS. The dp as well as the lavendar paper are from Wild Rose Studio's Bella paper pack.  I got lucky finding that paper to match her.  I colored her up then I found the paper I thought would go well with her coloring.  I normally pick paper first but this time I did it backwards, and totally lucked out!  See that gorgeous flower?  Well my fellow teammate, Kim Yu, made me some of these for a swap and I finally brought one out to use on this card.  I was so happy that it matched!!!  Doesn't she do beautiful work?  If you haven't stopped by her blog you must!  From there you can head on over to her Etsy store to purchase her gorgeous handmade items.

Alrighty, make sure to stop by each of the designer's blogs and leave some love (including mine):
