Triple Treat Birthday Card

Newly Engaged Daughter
I have been a very busy person of late, made a few more Family frames for Christmas Presents and then, Drove 2 trips back and forth to Pick up and Drop off my girls and one spouse from College.  Held a Baby Shower for my daughter who is expecting a little grand daughter for me in Feb.  I also had another Daughter get engaged, adding another guest to my house during the holidays. It was a fun few weeks but I am ready for the routine to kick back in!
The Expectant Parents and Cardmaker!
My DD used my craft space to make a stash of 52 cards to use in the next year and suggested I make a card a week and give her a set next year for Christmas...I am thinking it might be the motivation I need. to get a few more cards made and to have some projects to post.  I decided either I am going to do this blog thing a lot better this year or my Blog will disappear in 2013.

Wendy posted  a cute Free For All Challenge on SCS so I decided to make a card and play along. This is what I came up with.  I used the spice cake paper because I love it and I am hoping to see it again in the future! I stamped the sentiment and image with Jet Brown StazOn and stamped the Triple Treat Flower image on More Mustard, Baja Breeze and, Old Olive. The used the respective punches, (5 Petal Flower, Fancy Flower and 1/2" Circle)to make my flower 3D.  Iused my Lacey and Eyelet border Punches to deocrate the trims on the card.  The very Vanilla Panel was sent through the Sizzix with my Musical Flourish Embossing Folder an New Favorite of mine! I used the Decorative label and Designer lable to dress up the sentiment, and My Martha Stewart leaves to add some texture.  lastly I added a few 2 mm and 1 mm Hwero Arts Rhinestones to the flower to add some sparkle, I like how it turned out.   I think it turned out cute for a rusty card maker.  
Until Later... Happy Stamping!
