Happy Saturday! The Just Us Girls challenge this week is a sketch challenge...one of my favorite of our challenges. Nancy created this great sketch for us to use.
I have a first birthday party to go to next weekend, so I decided to use the sketch to create his birthday card. I stamped the cupcakes in four different Memento Luxe inks (love them!) on squares. They looked a little ordinary, so I rounded two corners on each square for more interest. The blue panel needed something too, so I used a Tim Holtz star stencil and translucent paste. But I'm disappointed that you can't see more of them! Oh well! The rest is pretty self-explanatory.
You should stop by these blogs to see what the design team has created! And we have a new guest this month...Shirley-Bee!
Thanks for stopping by!

This is really cute! Love those stars on the background and the primary colors are so perfect for a little boy. Great design and use of the sketch.
Lots of great color on this card, and the rounded colors are perfect. Love the star background too!
Rounding the corners did add a nice twist and yes I can see the stars just fine! I love the card Lisa...even it you were a tad disappointed! Have a wonderful weekend!
