You Light Up My Life

Hey Everyone,

I'm feeling so wishy washy today!  I have a million (ok, slight exaggeration ;P ) cards that I haven't shown off on the blog and I had the worst time choosing one. I finally settled on this birthday card I made using some stamps from DRS Designs.

I decided to use primary colors, my favorite for boy cards, and the sentiment from the most recent release, "You Light Up My Life".  The background stamp I used is Starry Background and I stamped it in all 3 primary colors to create the patterned paper.

The center candle stamp is Birthday Candle Burst , but I left off the sentiment that comes with it, and substituted this one. And when I had the thought to add the real candle as embellishment, I was feeling oh so clever ;)  It's just not a card one can send without a padded envelope.

Well, short and sweet for me.  If you want to check out my embossed card, it's being shown off on the DRS Designs blog today!

Have a good one :)
