And Yet Another Birthday Card

Today's card I'm sharing is for niece who will be celebrating her 18th birthday next week. Where did the time go? It's seems just like yesterday that I will catch her in my room coloring the walls with my make-up. Good times!

For this card I used The Glitter Sweet matstack from DCWV. I love the colors on this plaid cardstock. It's very girly. I made the flower and tag with the Cricut cartridge George and Basic Shapes. I cut the flower at 3", 2 1/2", 2" and 1 1/2" and layered them on top of each other for a layered effect. The "Happy Birthday" is from the clear stamp set "Greetings" from TPC Studios. I made a matching envelope by adding matching paper to front and I used a scallop border punch from EK Success. The small paper flower was made with Spellbinders Megabilities Die Rose Creations.

Overall I really like the way this card turned out. Simple and sweet. My husband did mention that I will never be able to buy a store bought card anymore. When I asked why he said "When they open their cards they will say What the hell is this!' So no more store bought cards for me. And that's okay!
Thanks for stopping by.
