We have a pretty important birthday coming up this week at
our house. Our oldest son will be
turning 16! Dear Husband asked if
we could turn back time!
A clean and simple design was the plan with some left-over
scraps from My Mind’s Eye Deena’s Penny Lane. Perfect bright colors but not too whimsical! I used Technique Tuesday’s Say It Happy
die and stamp set to create this fun card. The brown card stock was die cut with the “happy” outline
and then adhered on the teal card stock with temporary adhesive to hold it in
place. The “happy stamp was then
stamped in Technique Tuesday’s Red ink in the spaces. The banners were hand cut from the Penny Lane scraps. One of the “happy outlines” was adhered
with the matching teal card stock die cut “happy” adhered on top. My favorite glue to use with this type
of die cut is the Sakura Quickie Glue pen. The remaining parts of the sentiment were stamped around the
“happy” in Technique Tuesday’s Red ink.
Strategic placement of dimensional adhesive adds a bit of visual interest
to the finished card.
I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:

interested in becoming a Guest Designer!)
