Bright Birthday Greeting

I have had lots of birthday cards to make lately.  I made two versions of this fun card.  I just LOVE bright colors and this one surely fits that description.  There's no lack of sparkle and glitz, either!  Using texture and punches, I created a lovely card with very little effort.  Original idea CASED from Mary Fish.

A Birthday Owl

Here's another birthday wish card filled with texture and, once again, using more punches!!!  The original idea was CASED from Mary Fish.  Again, sorry for the hazy image.  I need to change my photo spot.  It's the light from the window that's messing up the images.  Isn't this little guy just adorable?

Birthday Fun!

This is a fun birthday card for someone who loves to shop! It's a slightly modified version of one I did previously in my Cards From Scraps Class.  I spiced it up a little here with brads, pearls and an additional layer behind the "Birthday Bliss".  The layers of Pretty in Pink and Rich Razzleberry are textured to help create interest.  Also, the simple use of a corner punch created some subtle touches.  The inside was so much fun I just had to share that also!  The stamp image on the top is from a long since retired set, and the Designer Paper is edged with the Scallop Trim Border Punch, although it's kind of hard to see in the picture.  It's pretty obvious I love to use my punches, too!  If you look closely, there is a ladies shoe with a pearl in the toe at the bottom right of the card (also part of the retired set).  One final touch to make the inside as special as the outside.
