Happy Birthday to you...

well, if it is your birthday. It isn't mine. Mine is in January. :D

But when I saw these cute as a button stamps from Lilac City Designs, I knew that I had to have this one!

I went a little dotty on this. Sorry for all that. I love dots but I try not to over-do it. May have gone a little over here. hehe

What I used: It's Your Day from Lilac City Designs, SU CS, K&Co. PP, ribbon, Prima flowers, Making Memories brad, Shimmerz Paints, White gel pen, Cuttlebug, Nestabilities, Cuttlebug embossing folder.

Thanks for stopping in...I appreciate it! :)

Not really my style...(This is long.)

or maybe it is? I love bright colors. I love adding embellishments and this and that to my cards. But I just don't like the square card. There. I said it. I hate squares. I discriminate against square cards. hehe

Anyway, on the Starving Artistsamps blog, they are calling this style the "Swedish Collage" style which if I'm reading right, they mean lots of stuff glued down to a square card. Right? So they issued a challenge...to make a card using this style and this is it. Though I LOOOVE the colors (maybe don't love green galore that much..LOL) and I love all the patterns of paper.

So, thinking along those lines of hating the square and loving all the "stuff"...I made another similary styled card in an A2 size.

I don't know that I like it better though because with the square, I can fit more stuff on the card.

Anyway, thanks for stopping by today.

What I used:

Square Card:
Mushroom Lane image from Cornish Heritage Farms, K&Co paper from the Amy Butler line, colored with copics, Cuttlebug, Nestabilities, Cuttlebug embossing folders, faux dew drops, prima flowers, SU brad, SU CS, button, and my corner rounder punch.

A2 sized card:
Lilac City Designs stamp, Neenah white CS, SU CS, K&Co. PP, ribbons, primas, eyelets, Cuttlebug, Nestabilities, white gel pen, paper piercer, Stickles, a paper from a Martha Stewart paper crafting kit (I think it was supposed to have been place cards?).

Thanks for stopping by today!
