Happy birthday…to you!

Hi, everyone!  It’s Kelli here today with a birthday card to share with you.  I tend to give birthday cards the most so any time I can make one and add it to my stash is great!  I used a few different stamps sets on this card, but the main one was the Lawn Fawn – A Birdie Told Me stamp set along with the matching A Birdie Told Me die set.
I stamped the little birds in Memento – Tuxedo Black ink and colored them with Copics:
top bird- Y35, Y15, Y13, Y11, BG07, BG05, BG02, BG01, YR18, YR16, YR14
bottom bird- Y35, Y15, Y13, Y11, Y000, RV29, RV25, RV23, YR18, YR16, YR14

The ‘happy birthday’ part of the sentiment is from the Tiddly Inks – Flying High stamp set.  I stamped it in Memento – Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with Y35 and Y11.  The ‘to you’ was stamped using two separate stamps from the Lawn Fawn – Love ‘n Breakfast stamp set.  The words were each from a different sentiment, but it’s really easy to mask off parts of it to only get the word you want.

The kraft background piece, the base behind the birds and the little scalloped border were all cut from the My Favorite Things – Blueprints 6 die set.  The patterned papers on the base behind the birds is from the Echo Park – Here & Now 6×6 paper pad.

I stamped the kraft background with the SP & Company – Wooden It Be Nice Woodgrain Background stamp in opaque white ink.  I really love the look of white ink on kraft cardstock!

I used some Sun Kissed Baker’s Twine and wrapped it around the kraft base a few times and then tied a bow through a button.

To finish everything off I added a little heart from the A Birdie Told Me die set and covered it with Glossy Accents.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a great day!  🙂
