Field Flowers

Another rainy day...I am ready for sunshine.  This Field Flowers set seems bright and cheery - I'll see if the cheer is contagious : )
I used the large paper doily die, the polka dots EF, the swirls scribbles die all in whisper white. The flower is stamped in Elegant Eggplant, Wisteria Wonder, and Wild Wasabi. The with Love sentiment is cut out with the bitty banners framelits. The card and flower are matted with Wisteria Wonder and the button is from the designer series.

Psalm 118:24 This is the day which the LORD has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Pinwheel Birthday

My friend's granddaughter is having her 1st birthday party today, and I made this card for her.  I pre-ordered the bitty banner framelits that will be avail in the new 2012 - 2013 catalog; I think they will be one of my favorite must haves, along with the label framelit :-)  I tried the pinwheel technique and had fun with it!  To make the pinwheel you just start with a triangle (I cut a 2 1/2" square in half); then fold over the inside edge of each triangle and glue it to a circle in back.  Then cover the front seems of the 4 triangles with a decorative brad, button, or stamped circle.

On the inside I used the create a cupcake stamp set and punch, along with happiest birthday wishes hostess set.  The happy birthday sentiment is a little crooked, but I figured since she's only 1 she may not notice :-)
