I Heard There Was Cake…

Hi crafty friends. Today I have a cute little card to share that I made for my niece for her birthday which happens to be today! Happy Birthday Melina!!
My card features a new stamp and die set from My Maker’s Movement and some Baker’s Twine from Really Reasonable Ribbon.
Did you hear that Cheery Lynn Designs is now My Maker’s Movement? They are still stocking some favorites from the Cheery Lynn offerings and they are also offering a fabulous new line of stamp and die sets. Head on over and take a look!

My Maker’s Movement product:
MSD206 – I Heard There Was Cake

I dusted off the Copic markers for this one and it was fun!! I need some more practice, but it was a nice change from my usual style.

My card was finished off with two cute little bows in the upper corners created on my Bow-it-All V3.0 Tool using Solid Pink Baker’s Twine. This card is nice and flat for mailing and it still satisfies my need for a bow. 🙂

The fuzzy layer of paper behind my main panel is mulberry paper. If you would like to see how I use this paper, I have a video HERE.

The August Ribbon Club Assortment is a collection of rich autumn colors and prints. It contains 9 styles and a total of 17 yards of ribbon and crochet lace. The September Ribbon Club Assortment is a Halloween themed assortment with 9 styles and a total of 18 yards of ribbon. Each monthly assortment is a color or holiday themed collection of ribbon. What a fun way to build your ribbon stash and try new ribbon styles.

I kept this card relatively flat for mailing. You could even eliminate the Thin 3D Foam Tabs under the leaves to make it even flatter.

This is also a perfect way to use up those precious ribbon scraps that you don’t want to part with. I just dove tailed the end of two 5-1/2″ pieces of each color of ribbon and even spaced them over the background Distress Ink paper I created. I then added the leaf squares on top of the ribbon.
