Amazing Birthday from Stampin’ Up! using a sketch

November 12, 2014 By Michelle Last

I rustled up this little number using the Amazing Birthday stamp set using a sketch challenge from Stamping&Blogging today.  I think this is a perfect mans card and I used the Trim the Tree paper for the background and trimmed some strips to add a pop of colour.

Amazing-Birthday-from Stampin' Up!

I stamped the rectangular sentiment again in crumb cake and cut out the key words ‘Today’ and ‘Amazing’ and mounted them higher on dimensionals which gives some dimension and interest. You can see what I mean below….

Interactive Mini Album I've been busy behind the Interactive Mini Album

I've been busy behind the scenes creating a special mini album for my team retreat this weekend. I can't wait to spend time with my wonderful team—being creative together, sharing lots of laughs and making this beautiful keepsake. If you've followed me for a while, you'll know I have a real love for mini albums. They're one of my favourite ways to preserve memories because they tell a story that's far bigger than a single scrapbook page....
