I had a wonderful birthday today. My husband and I went to my parent's house and celebrated with them and my sister and her fella. My mom made my favourite meal...soft tacos...yummy!! She also made a fabulous homemade chocolate cake with white icing...also my favourite...it was such a nice day! Thank you mom and dad! We just got home, but all day I had been thinking about the sketch at the Sweet Stop and the colours at Hand Stamped Sentiments.
This is what I came up with...
I should have paid more attention to the sketch at the Sweet Stop and not relied on my 35 year old brain for memory...so I guess the sketch was more of an inspiration...and I loved it!! The colours at HSS just said "Birthday" to me...so I went with it...my mom told me today she needed more birthday cards for her stash. So I am putting together a bundle of cards for her...this one will be on the top!
These are different colours to use with this stamp set "Charming" but I think it kinda works...what do you think?
Thanks for stopping by!
Smiles,
Lesley :)
