Birthday Card From Scraps





The Close To My Heart Facebook page shared this birthday card today:

Isn't this a great way to use up a bunch of thin scraps?!

The festive cake and sentiment is from B1442 - Belated Birthday

By stamping the cake in three colors (Pixie, Sorbet, & Whisper), then hand trimming the layers and flags, a multi-colored birthday cake is created. The tag was cut from the Close To My Heart exclusive Cricut Artiste cartridge, page 35, at 3 1/2".

The strips for the background come from the Chalk It Up Paper Packet, the Brown & Tan Glitter paper, and the Lagoon Hearts Washi Tape. The sentiment was stamped with Lagoon ink and a piece of Slate Diagonal Striped Ribbon was tied to the tag.

   

This design inspiration is "A Heartfelt Classic" pattern from the Originals Card Confidence Program book. I'm so glad this book has been re-made in a soft-cover with a spiral binding that folds in half for convenient use!

This card and stamp set is pictured on page 91 in the 2014-15 Close To My Heart Annual Inspirations Idea Book and Catalog. Don't have the new catalog? Please leave a comment below so I can share how to get your own copy of this 194 page resource. 

Did you know that there is a recipe booklet that details all the products and Cricut cut sizes for each project in the Annual Inspirations catalog? You can get a copy of the entire file emailed to you FREE by just commenting below!!
