A Card A Day In May Challenge: Day 1 - BIRTHDAY

 Good day and welcome to my humble blog. I'm an Independent Demonstrator with Stampin' Up! and I'm here to offer you inspiration and encourage you to get into your craft space to get creative. 

For the month of May I joined a pressure free challenge to create A Card A Day In May. This will just be for fun and inspiration. I don’t promise to create and blog everyday but I do promise to have fun with all my creations. Our host for the challenge is Kevin from Kreations by Kevin - Kevin’s Kards on Facebook. Cards are to be posted on his group page: A Card A Day In May in the comments of the appropriate day.

Here’s my card for Day 1: BIRTHDAY.

I  did create this card yesterday on May 1st but I didn’t get around to taking my pictures till this morning. Hence the tardiness of this post. As I mentioned earlier, I may not blog about every card. So if you want to see all my creations, the best place is in my Facebook group: Diane’s Craft Space. 

Products used:

• Stamp set: Biggest Wishes (retired)
• Card stock: Basic Black (121045), Basic White (159276), Crushed Curry (131199), Melon Mambo (115320)
• Ink pads: Memento Tuxedo Black (132708)
• Accessories: It’s My Party DSP (retired), Beautiful Balloon Dies (161456), Artistic Dies (retired), Balloon punch (retired), Classic Matte Black Dots (retired), Black Twine (unknown source), Stampin’ Dimensionals (104403)

I also play with the current Freshly Made Sketch #624

To finish off the card set, I added a bit of DSP to the inside of the card and the envelope. Keeping it really simple yet jazzing it up a bit.

That’s all for now, I do have Day 2 done but not sure if I’ll have time to blog about it as I am heading off to work soon. I hope you enjoyed today’s creation and that it inspired you to get crafty today.
