Sweet Birthday Card!

Hi everyone, It's Jen here and I'm here to share some inspiration using products from the newest Sweet Escape Collection that launched a few days ago.

There are so many fun products in the collection that it was really hard to decide what I wanted to use but I finally settled on the adorabe critters from the Party Time Tails Set.

Products Used

Party Time Tails 5x7 Stamps – LDRS Creative

Party Time Tails Coordinating Dies – LDRS Creative

Wildwood 5x7 Paper Pack – LDRS Creative

Macarons 4x6 Stamps – LDRS Creative

Envelope & Postage Collage 4x6 Stamps – LDRS Creative

I began by stamping out all of the images from the Party Time Tails Stamp Set in black ink of white heavy weight cardstock. Then coloured them in with alcohol markers in bright and bold colours. Once I'd finished the colouring added some white highlights with a gel pen and cut out the images with the coordinating die set before setting them aside.

To create the background I cut down a piece of blue distressed cardstock from the Wildwood Paper Pack to 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 inches to use as wallpaper and adhered it to a top folding, landscape card base. For the flooring I cut a strip of woodgrain card stock from the same paper pack and glued it to the bottom of the cardbase. To add defination between the flooring and wallpaper I added a thin strip of white cardstock.

Next, I arranged the coloured critter images onto the card base into a cute party scene and adhered them to the card front. Some images were adhered flat whilst others were popped up on foam squares to create dimension.

I stamped the sentiment  "Have a sweet day" from the Macaron Stamp Set in black Ink onto the background. However I felt that the card was missing something! So I shopped my stash of LDRS Creative products and found the cute puppy image from the Envelope & Postage Collage Stamp Set that I thought looked like a framed picture. I stamped, coloured and fussy cut the image and added it to the wall behind the party guests and it was the perfect addition. I decided not to add any bling as there was already so much going on in this scene and just like that my card was complete.

I cant wait to see what scenes you all create with these gorgeous woodland critters.

By guys!
