Another rainy day has come and is almost gone. Looking at the weather app, we are expected to have rain all next week, except maybe Tuesday. Thank goodness I have a stamp corner and lots of creative supplies to explore and play with!
Today's card is for another dear granddaughter. Four of our grands have spring birthdays! Our only grandson has a winter birthday. And happy news! A new baby will arrive towards the end of October. Pause here for a BIG smile.
Well, about the card.
You know I love a sketch, so here I am playing with another inspiring layout from The Paper Players. This sketch really called for patterned papers, and the Simple Stories Fun Times Paper Pad was just what I wanted.
The ribbon image, "The Best" was cut from the DSP and placed on a die cut circle (PTI). Embossing the white panel with Birthday Sentiments EF (SSS) continues the theme. The sentiment is also from SSS, the Birthday Blitz stamps and dies.
Happily, I had some tiny gold stars to add for a bit of bling.
I'm adding this to the challenges at Just Us Girls (mood Board - inspired by the colors and geometric shapes)
and Love Those Pretty Papers.
Wishing you a great night! I can't tell you how much it means that you stop by to say hello.
Be yourself
Have delight in your craft
Make something beautiful!

What a clean look to your bright happy colors on this card Cindy! The patterns and embossing all play together so well and I love the sentiment(s) and gold stars top it off perfectly! Thank you so much for playing at Just Us Girls with our mood board!
What a fun, happy, cheerful, colorful bright birthday card! I love that embossed panel; it adds some pizzazz without detracting from that big sentiment and the fun background! So happy you were able to play with my sketch this week at the Paper Players, Cindy!
I love the bright colours and patterns you used on your card Cindy and the embossed panel makes a great focal panel too, as does the sentiment rosette. So fun! Congratulations on your news and thanks for playing with us over at The Paper Players this week!

I love when you play with paper! This collection provided just what you needed for a colorful and fun birthday card for one of your granddaughters. Happy news to have another grand to love on the way! I hope your area is safe from flooding and you're able to simply enjoy the benefits of the rain.
Cindy, this is just FABULOUS! I love all those bright, vibrant colors. The embossed panel adds so much texture and the ribbon. This card just shouts happy! Congratulations on the new grand coming. Such a blessing! So happy you joined us at The Paper Player this week!
