Viva la Verve {Happy Birthday} & Seize the Birthday


Corey and I just got back from a quick weekend getaway! The weather was gorgeous and we had so much fun! While we were away, I kept looking at the fun sketch at Verve. I must admit, I struggled with it. But once I went with the doily for the circle shape, the card came together quickly. I am also linking this card to Seize the Birthday.


I used some new Lawn Fawn papers...so pretty! I used a coral/navy/kraft colour combo too. Using some distress inks, I inked all the sides of my card and layers. I think it softens a card.


I used Verve's Great Friend and Poppy Birthday for my stamps. I love the Poppy Birthday font and sentiments. SO pretty and clean!
