Patterns and Texture Birthday

The color combinations in the Soda Pop designer series paper are so much fun - it is no longer available, but I still have some to play around with...

The Granny Apple Green card stock in the background is embossed with the Tin Tile folder, which is also retired, it is one of my favorites!

The sentiment is from the Attention Shoppers stamp set and is stamped with Night of Navy ink.

Supplies:

Sweet Peas

I was playing around with the Sweet Peas stamp set to make both baby boy and baby girl cards and used the Timeless Plaid designer series paper for the boy card and the Unbounded Beauty designer series paper for the girl card along with coordinating 

colors of card stock.

I used die cuts from the Perennial Postage dies and Around it All dies along with some retired embellishments to complete the cards.

Celebrate

One of my favorite bundles is the Cake Celebrations bundle and right now it is on the Last Chance List. I paired it with the Memorable Blooms dies and Eyelet Lace 3D embossing folder for this card.

I tore the embossed piece into three pieces and added a piece of Unbounded Beauty designer series paper behind it. There is also a piece of Gold Foil sheets over the designer series paper and embossed card stock and a strip of Glimmer paper on the cake. The sentiment layer is die cut using the Deckled Rectangles dies.
