The tag was cut out of Black Licorice, and I used Fossil and Wild Cherry card stock as well. My heart was cut out with the Notched Tag Die-namics.  I used Black Licorice Grosgrain, and Jute Twine for my embellishments, as well as, Michael's brads.

Inspirational Birthday Bash

Hey everyone!! It is time for this week's Ribbon Carousel Challenge, and this week, I am the hostess!!


My challenge to you all this week is to make a birthday card, easy peasy!! I combined this week's Ribbon Carousel challenge with this week's There She Goes challenge. I LOVE the inspiration photo this week, so I was excited to get to play along!



I used the new Oh Crop set for my card today, along with this week's Mojo Monday sketch....which I modified just a tiny bit. I moved the sentiment, which was place on a flag from the MFT First Place Award Die-namics. I used the MFT Circle Stax Die-namics and the Open Scalloped Doily Duo Die-namics. My card stock is the new Bazzill Gold Coin and PTI's Aqua Mist. For my card base, I used Sweet Tooth from MFT, and my paper is the Baby Jane Deck from Cosmo Cricket. To embellish it, I used Champagne Vintage Seam Binding, and some Michael's brads.

Well, that is all for me! Thanks for stopping by, and be sure to check out all three challenges that I have entered!

And my Ribbon Carousel Crewmates:

For my card tonight, I used the ADORABLE Pure Innocence Lady Liberty stamp set. I didn't go with the traditional colors for her, but something a little different. My colors were inspired by the paper I used, Lilybee Designs Memorandum. It was paired with Fossil(MFT), Going Gray, and Banana Split(Bazzill) card stock. My paper panel was cut out using the Designer Label 2 Stax Die-namics. I used the Traditional Tag Stax Die-namics for my sentiment, which I added the smallest star from the Star Stax Die-namics to. I covered it up on the front, but on the inside, I used the Notched Border Die-namics. Kraft Grosgrain by MFT is the ribbon I used, and my tag was attached with Jute Twine from the Ribbon Carousel. To finish, I did my normal paper piercing, and added some Michael's brads. It's an obsession, lol.
