Next, is a bright birthday card that I made with Nina's new Vintage Rides. I wanted to go with some funky bright colors for the car and thought it would be cute having some balloons tied to the trunk. I took some liberty adding a flower to the bow but think it will still work for a boy or a girl birthday card. I love having cards like these in my stash!
Stamps: Vintage Rides (TCM)
Ink: Memento & Versafine
Card stock: DCWV Citrus mat stack; PTI white; Copic Xpress it white
Other: PTI mat stack 1 die; Spellbinder ribbon banners; May Arts satin ribbon; Wild Orchid flower; sanding
block; Copics
Next up on today's hop is our guest designer Gini's blog. I have been LOVING her designs this week, haven't you? She and Geri have been amazing as our guest designers - I've been so inspired by all our TCM designers' projects for this release.
