Here's a fun card using the Birthday Wishes stamp set along with Karen's latest Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.

I made the cute elephant and matching sentiment the focal image here. The elephant is colored with Copic markers and embellished with a bit of Stickles on the party hat.

I used some patterned paper from the Eye Candy line from GCD Studios for the large circle panel. The bold patterns in this line scream "party," so I thought the paper would be a perfect match for a birthday card. I layered the circle on a coordinating scalloped circle panel, then on a bright pink panel.

I embossed a strip of cardstock with a QuicKutz Polka Dot embossing folder and set that across the cardfront. A small piece of knotted fuschia faux suede ribbon is at one end of the strip and the elephant image, along with two matching buttons, is at the other.

Materials Used:
