My grandpa's birthday is coming up, so I decided to get a heads start and make his card early. I used this great Venetian paper from Amuse that I got from the party I hosted yesterday! (stay tuned to see pics of the cards we made). Here's the card:
And here's the sketch from this week's Freshly Made Sketches challenge:
The typewriter image and "just a note to say" is from Hero Arts. The Happy Birthday Sentiment is from PTI. The corduroy button is from SU and the ribbon is from Amuse.
The polka dot paper is from DCWV.
You will definitely be seeing more of this great Venetian paper, because I ordered a multi pack! Hope everyone had a nice weekend, we sure had beautiful weather here today, so we took the dogs exploring around our town and saw some really pretty areas that we had no clue existed!
I love that cute typewriter stamp! The paper is very pretty! Happy bday to your grandpa :)
ReplyDeleteI love the colors you used on this card, so bright and cheerful! And all of the little touches you added with the ribbon and buttons, just so sweet.
ReplyDeleteWow, those bright colors look fabulous and I love the patterned paper! Cute idea to use the two colors of ribbon and add the bright blue button!

ReplyDeleteGreat card and I love the bright background paper. Looks as if it will be very versatile.
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic, Jessica, especially the way you combined the bright colors and still kept it looking masculine. I just love that bit of orange ribbon you tied in with the blue!
ReplyDeleteGood for you getting ahead! The typewriter is so cute with the paper coming out. Love the background paper you bought… bring it on :)
ReplyDeleteOoooh Jessica, I love this card. The colour scheme is so striking and that typewriter with message is awesome. :)
