Make A Wish!

Hi everyone and happy Thursday!
It's almost the weekend! Any fun plans?
It is also the 4th Thursday of the month and that means it's time for a new challenge over at the

The topping this go around is...

Of course, the topping is always completely optional.
"Anything Goes" Birthday is perfectly fine!

Here is a look at the card that I created for the challenge...


For my geometric element, I went with stars and I was lucky to discover that one of my word dies, also included stars! It was a win win!!

I created my card by first creating a top folding A2 card and covering it with some birthday text patterned paper. I used a card edge die to trim down a piece of pink gingham paper, tied some ribbon around the top and popped it up onto my card base with foam tape. I die cut my sentiment from white cardstock three times so that I could give a little dimension by stacking them on top of each other. I used some scrap papers to die cut the sentiment again, only this time only focusing on the stars. I placed the stars onto my sentiment and adhered my sentiment piece to the front of my card. I added some white Nuvo drops and a bigger star to the center of my bow to finish my card. So adorable!!


Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today and taking a look at my latest creation!

    Gorgeous girly card, Stacey! The pink gingham is a great backdrop for the big die, and the bow really elevates the design.
