18th Birthday

My son celebrated his 18th Birthday on 28th December...... we all went out for a meal the day before and surprised him by having his other siblings and their partners ready and waiting at the restaurant. Not being very organised I had to put together this card quickly before Church on the Sunday morning, I thought about buying one but cannot quite manage to actually buy a card when I am perfectly able to make them (Plus I have tons of stuff to use up.... lol).

Have used Bashful Blue and Night of Navy Cardstock, plus the Old Olive Patterned Paper edged with the Border Punch at the top and the bottom. The circles are stamped with the Circle Circus Stamp Set in Whisper White ink and the stars are cut out using the Star Punch and Bashful Blue Cardstock. The Sentiment was stamped using the Happy Everything Stamp Set. All these items are available from Stampin' Up!

Now the inside was a bit of a joke, he is a trainee butcher and always telling us about the meat he cuts up and he seems to cut up a lot of lamb, so what better to put inside his card than a little lamb.... lol. Inside was created using Whisper White, Bashful Blue and Night of Navy Cardstock. The sheep was made using Stampin' Up! punches, Scallop Circle, Oval, Five Petal Flower (for ears) and Word Window Punch for legs.

There is a Cup Challenge on ILWS tonight, check out my right hand side bar and scroll down for a link to In Love With Stamping, be there at 5pm to register for an evening of fun and crafting.

Take Care all xx
