Chevrons/ Sketches and Birthdays

9 Comments

Hi Friends…Hope you are surviving the winter blast!  My son

goes to college at FSU and they actually called school for a Snow Day yesterday!

He was so thrilled!  But by the weekend we will be bak in the high 70’s.

Anyways,  Today over at Seize the Birthday our toppings option is…

“Chevrons”

Just remember to keep it a Birthday Theme!

If your not a toppings kinda person, well…..you can just

stick with our usual “Anything Goes”Birthday!

 The choice is yours!

IMG_0004I combined our challenge with this fabulous sketch over at Viva la Verve.

Right when I saw it I knew I didn’t want to miss it!

Card Details:

The DP is some of my all time favorite!  I received it at a Stamp Expo

in a surprise gift bag and I absolutely use it ever so sparingly because I like it so much!

The stamps are both from Verve: Plain Jane/ flower and the sentiment is from Poppy Birthday.

The chevron embossing folder is also Stampin Up.

Used a punch to make my leaves and fussy cut 2 sets of flowers

to give it some dimension on pop dots.

Hope you have a fantastic day and please join us at Seize the Birthday!

We would love it if you would!

Here are some links to get you started!

  1. What a great card. Love that chevron background that you embossed. I wonder if I have one of those folders. It seems I did get a whole bunch in a bundle one time and at least one is similar. Love all the colors you chose too.

  2. Love your card Nancy and that DSP is perfect with your pretty flowers. Great job with the sketch.

  3. LOVE your colors, your embossed chevrons and your flowers with the swiss dots embossed leaves! Pretty card, Nancy!

  4. This is beautiful! What great colors, and I love that embossed chevron background. Those fun flowers are perfect….great job!

  5. Your card makes me think of Spring which is a welcome change from all the snow I am currently looking at! Lovely flowers and very pretty DSP.

  6. Beautiful card, Nancy! Love the flowers and fab embossed background. The papers and color combo are so cheery!

  7. This may sound crazy, but the colors on your card make me thing of oranges and limes…and summer!
    So bright and cheerful. Very pretty card Nancy!

  8. Your color choice here is just stunning, Nancy! The black really makes everything pop and that dp is gorgeous!

  9. The bold colours are fantastic Nancy! Love the layered flowers. Great card!
