Here’s my card for
this week’s Retro Sketches challenge. At first, this one had me stumped, but I thought back to
my card for a recent CAS-ual Fridays challenge and the long, tall birthday candles I created for that card and working from that idea, came up with this candle-filled birthday card.
This time, the candles are made from strips of dotted paper from the
Jillibean Soup Soup Staples 2 Collection kit. I arranged the strips on a white panel, then added a cardstock “flame,” topped with
Yellow Stickles for some sparkle. I wrapped the card with some
orange baker’s twine, then added the panel with the “happy birthday” from
Lawn Fawn’s Happy Everything set stamped on it in
orange ink on top. The sentiment is perfectly positioned to hide the mess I made adhering the twine!
And, since it's Friday, how about a little sale to start off the weekend right?
