Turning 18

This is my third entry to Paper Crafts Gallery Idol 2013 (only 3 allowed per person). I needed to make an 18th birthday card for my niece and was waiting for my new Paper Smooches stamp set to arrive. It came yesterday and I made this card last night. I love the quirky numbers! I also received a prize that I won from Scraps of Me's Blog Candy Giveaway last month. I used the embossing folder from my prize on the white cardstock. Thanks Paula! The little heart (although hard to see from the photo) was covered with glossy accents. I can see more cards coming up with numbers!!

Happy 18th

We've been invited to an 18th birthday party next weekend and I wanted to use my newest acquisition from Basic Grey's True Love collection. I received a prize from BG when I ordered a warehouse clearance parcel last year. I received the 12x12 papers, some chipboard alphabets, embellishments and a chipboard album last week. It took me ages to get this card together - such a simple sketch and so hard to pick the elements to go with the sketch. Here is my card along with the Retro Sketch #48. Thanks for dropping by!

Cardstock - Neenah
