This week's OWH Stars and Stamps midweek throwdown is birthday cards. I made this card a while ago, but it's perfect for today's challenge because I used the OWH sketch #123 to make it. I think this has got to be my favorite go-to sketch because I find myself using it time and time again - almost as often as this color combination :)
I used scraps of Kaiser dsp, along with a SNSS birthday sentiment, and stamped the background with a retired SU! weathered stamp in soft grey ink. I used a red prima flower, and a white punched flower and a black mini brad for the center. I pierced holes in the red SB circle just for a little added interest.
Record high temps are in our forecast today, so I'll be out and about enjoying them before we head back into the deep freeze again tomorrow :) Make it a great day and thanks for stopping by!
