Webster’s Shabby Bloomers
Today I followed the current CPS Sketch 173 to make this shabby birthday card, using a new JustRite birthday sentiment, Webster’s Pages paper and Bloomers Fabric Flower Trim. I’ve had these ribbon cards by Webster’s Pages for a few months and have held off on using/offering them until I had the paper to match, and my paper came in last week — OH happy day!!!
I really didn’t have any stamping time today, but the house quieted down so I snuck in this one card — but I will have to keep my post short — so not much gabbing, just photos and the pertinent info. Here’s the card:
My card measures 6.25″ x 4.5″ to fit the envelopes from Wal-Mart called Invitation Envelopes. They are sized to fit a 4 x 6 photo in them, but I like this slightly larger size for cards. It gives me a bit more space to play!
Stamp: NEW Birthday Sentiments by JustRite in GREAT new, easy to open packaging — you’ll LOVE it — in stock for $14.95. It is made in the 1 5/8″ size and works on the 2″ Stamper as well, coordinating with the 2″ Round Wide Borders beautifully.
Paper: Websters Pages 6×6 Combo Pack - Lullaby Lane and Life’s Portrait – $5.95
Ink: VersaFine Onyx Black
Ribbon: Websters Pages Bloomers Fabric Flower Trim – $11.95, 100% Silk (Champagne) in 1.25″ and 1/4″, Bow Easy
Other: Kaiser Pearls, Spellbinders Square Nesties, Vintage Button
And here’s the inside, using up the rest of those 2 sheets of paper I cut into.
I love the pretty font and beautiful sentiments. This will definitely be a go-to set for birthdays! I like pretty, and this fits the bill!
All items used to make this card are available at The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store. Just email me at [email protected] to order, including your state/zip OR country.
