Congratulations to Jennifer (picard76) for being chosen the Featured Stamper this week! I enjoyed looking through your lovely gallery.
I needed a birthday card for my niece and found this fun one to CASE.
I loved all the colors and patterns on Jennifer's card and sought to capture that on my card.
I used different colors and patterns, added some washi tape and a balloon instead of speech balloon, used a die for the candles and made it a shaker card.
I bought this wonderful die after seeing Ardyth using it on a lovely card in her gallery a few weeks ago!
I colored the candles with Tombow markers - spreading the color around with a Clear Glitter Wink of Stella - which gives them a shimmer in the light!
This card is way more busy than my usual CAS designs! but I think it makes quite a festive celebratory card for my niece!
Have a fun week in the FS gallery Jennifer and thanks for the inspiration!

Your card says 'party time' - great fun. Love that candle die. This site can be such an enabling place.
