It's fun to get together to celebrate a birthday.......but actually it is fun to get together to celebrate anything! The stars aligned this past weekend and I actually got to spend an afternoon with two of my favorite stampers.....Jen Timko and Jen Mitchell. A lot of stamping talk to be sure - and a lot of laughs. Jen M brought a selfie stick - that she had never used before. It was a strange experience and we couldn't stop laughing as you can see in the picture below!
I paired our cheery color combo at Pals Paper Arts along with Nance Leedy's cool sketch at The Paper Players to create my card. That fabulous script sentiment is from a recent Paper Pumpkin kit.
Great challenge combo, Linda! I love your balloons and the Gorgeous Grunge background with the smattering of sparkles in the sequins! The font is beautiful. So glad you had a good time with the J's! :)
ReplyDeleteLove the loops of twine! Very festive card!
ReplyDeleteAwesome colors for a birthday card! Love the balloons and the circle under the sentiment. Perfect!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this, Linda! Great use of the colors and my sketch. The loops, balloons and speckles all make it FUN. So glad you gals got together and....so glad you join us at The Paper Players this week!

ReplyDeleteAnd for the record I have not used the selfie stick since so I won't be an expert at it any time soon!
ReplyDeleteYou just know that you like a card when the first thing you do upon seeing the blog is to reach the "pin it" button. Absolutely adorable, Linda! And I loved the "selfie"....
