My husbands birthday is coming up in May so I took this opportunity to get a head start on his gift. I chose Dark Chocolate and Simply Chartreuse for my colour scheme. Dark Chocolate Cardstock was matted with Bitty Dot Basics then a simple embellishment was made with Vintage Cream felt topped with a Simply Chartreuse pinked circle stamped with a Tag-its #2 frame and birthday cake from Tag-its #1.The circle was adhered using foam tape. The sentiment at the bottom of the card was from Make a Wish Additions and also adhered with foam tape. Rounded corners and chcolate brads finished off the card.
All Supplies from PaperTrey Ink unless otherwise noted:
Cardstock: Dark Chocolate, Dark Chocolate Bitty Dot Basics, Simply Chartreuse
Stamps: Tag-its #1, #2 and Make a Wish Additioins
Ink: Dark ChocolateDie: Flower Fusion #1
Dies: Mat Stack #1, Double-Ended Banners
Other: Chocolate Brads, Corner Chomper, foam tape
