I thought this would be the perfect card for my teenage niece - girly, but not too childish with clean geometric lines. The in-colour designer paper does most of the work here without the need for lots of stamping. It was also a good excuse to get my bird punch out of the drawer, as he hasn't been used in a while. If you're quite new to stamping and reading this and thinking I've finally lost the plot as there isn't a bird to be seen on this card, you'd be right - but the wing shape from the punch in question makes the perfect flame for the birthday candles (so I'm not completely mad, just a little!)
Just before I go, it's Tuesday which means MDS Digital Download Day. Here's a quick look at some of today's new downloads:
Just click on the date button to go straight to my online store to download them.
Back tomorrow with another project - right now I'm off to watch the end of the Bake Off! Until tomorrow, happy stampin!
