Happy Saturday!
Today we are heading up to Sudbury again to see Ben and to go look at some apartments for next year! Are you kidding me? I was just getting used to him driving when he headed to University but now living of his own? I think it may be the allure of a full sized fridge! Regardless it should be a fun day. Hope it is a nice day for traveling.
A post needs a card, so a birthday card for fun. I was itching too try out my new Text Block Birthday die from Papertrey Ink. I love that you can put a birthday card together in just a couple of minutes using the die and some patterned paper.
That die looks so great in front of patterned paper! Love the little sequins you added too. I hope you have a fun day spent with your Ben.
ReplyDeleteThe pairing of die with DP looks fabulous, Tracey ... fun addition of the wee sequins and sweet banner! Have a wonderful time with Ben ... safe travelling! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteI just tried out this die last night, too! I'll post it in a couple of days. My design is very, very similar to yours. ;-) Have fun looking at apartments! Your little boy is growing up, lol!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a fabulous day hunting for apartments. It's hard to believe a year has already passed for Ben! Love the patterned papers on your birthday card Tracey.
ReplyDeleteOh this is a fun die, cute bday card Tracey! Hope the apartment hunt goes well. It's a big step for him and a GIANT one for mama LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd happy Saturday to you! I love the colors of your card. The die does make an easy and lovely card.
ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous. Love it with that patterned paper, too. I completely forgot I had this die, and I went and made a card with it, too. I guess I'd better go all the way with my copy catting of you, and enter at Seize the BD, too. Hope you had a great day with Ben.
ReplyDeleteTracey, I would have never thought to put that die over patterned paper but it totally looks amazing. I love it!
ReplyDeleteReally fun die cut-- it looks so fabulous with the patterned paper! Hope you had a great weekend and safe trip.
ReplyDeletepretty! love the little floral tail coming out the side!
ReplyDeleteDelightfully bright and fun! Love that little pop of floral from the banner tail, and the sequins add a perfect trio of Hawaiian Shores with the die cut panel! Thanks so much for leaving me some love the other day Tracey, I so appreciated it!
ReplyDeleteLove the dp behind this fantastic die, Tracey! Those colors are just amazing -- they feel so Spring-like. That little flag is the perfect finishing touch too. Great card. And hope you had fun with Ben, as well as a safe trip there and back. Bev
ReplyDeleteLovely birthday card. I was going to buy that cover plate, but there were so many other goodies I wanted instead. It does make a quick card though. Love your little side tag.
ReplyDeleteI love that you chose plaid for behind this die cut and your flag is so pretty, Tracey! Beautiful card!
ReplyDeleteLove the plaid behind the wonderful cut out and the floral banner is a sweet touch!
ReplyDeleteOh, this looks so pretty, Tracey!
ReplyDeleteWhat a simple yet so effective card Tracey. Enjoy your family day.

Fabulous! Love papers, the plaid versus the blue and that little tag hanging out the side....simply wonderful. I am awaiting this die in the mail! Until then, I shall come back and visit this card often. :)
ReplyDeleteLove that background paper for this card! And Hawaiian Shores is one of my very favorite colors so I'm not surprised my eye was drawn to this card!
