This card went through a lot of changes as it was being made. Even when I thought I was finished, I tore it all down and replaced the background DSP. Sometimes it takes longer to put these things together than others ;)
I used the I Am Me DSP, which has so many great patterns and images. The candles came from Cycle Celebration, as did the sentiment. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be to cut those out :) They are stamped in Real Red, So Saffron and Pool Party. I wanted to use all the colours from the DSP in that little cluster of fun.
For some extra celebration, I tossed in some stars from Simply Stars in Calypso Coral and Basic Gray. I topped off that tiny star with a very large rhinestone.
The chevrons were made with the 1" square punch and because everything else seemed to have a rhinestone, those got some too! In the end, the card weighed about 10 lbs.
- Create a project with "Polka Dots ".
- Create a project using "the Word Happy".
- Or Mash it Up and create a project "with Polka Dots & The Word Happy on it ".
Thanks for stopping by!
