What a great day today has been! We have had great weather today, I had a chance to pick up the house a little, my daughter had a playdate (she is one) and it was very sweet to see the little ones playing together and now both the kids are in bed - so that means I get to craft a little - woo-hoo! yay!!
Since today was a bright and sunny day - I was inspired to make a bright and sunny birthday card for my neighbor's daughter who is turning 5 on Saturday. I was inspired by the sketch at the awesome Mother's & Daughter's Creations Challenge Blog and had to try that sketch for this card.
I really liked that the pink part of the sketch was off center a bit. I wanted to make a fun card and so this is what I came up with.
The background DP is from DCWV. The stamped sentiments are from All Night Media and colored in by Prisma pencils, the ribbon from Offray and the brads are from American Crafts. Although you can't see it, I used some paper glaze on the cake stand and on the candles and lots of Crystal Stickles on the teal cake layer.
I think, I like making birthday cards best because they put me in the festive mood - and festivities means that there will be cake- and that is always awesome !
Hope all of you are doing well and are excited for all the promises that await you tomorrow!!!
Sunny Smiles :)
