Happy Monday!

Happy Holidays to you my friends!  

I thought I would take a little breather from all of the Holiday hustle and bustle and create a sweet little birthday card!  It's nice to switch things up a bit, don't you think?

So, here is what I created using the "Birthday Bash" line from Imaginisce!   Have you seen this?  Do you know how totally cute the candles are that accompany this one?  They had me at 'hello'!  : ) 

I did a lot of machine stitching on here, but isn't it fun?  I think the colors of this line work so well for a young boy's Birthday celebration or memories!  I used my EK Success big scallop circle border punch, then cut out the letters to fill in the word "Happy" and adhered them from behind.  







 













Next, I cut out the banner.  Then, I used the ribbon trim from the Apple Cider line on the interior border to help the scallops "pop".  The balloons were fussy cut, then I tied some thread bows on them and pop dotted the red balloon for interest.  The finishing touch on here are some I-Rock glam rocks in a variety of colors on the present.  I couldn't resist!  I am in looove with my I-Rock and my glam rocks, they come out on almost every project! 

The white rub on sentiment is Pebbles, the cardstock Bazzill and everything else is Imaginisce.

Ok, that's all for me today!  Have yourself a super scrappity day!!!
