Birthday Girl

Hello friends!  Today marks the start of what is normally release week at The Craft's Meow but since there are big things afoot, we are having a celebration of themes this week with one new set releasing on the 21st (previewing on the 20th.)  Head over to the TCM blog for all of the deets!

Without further ado, let's get the party started this week with our "Cards for a Child" theme!
One of my good friend's daughter is turning one in a couple of weeks and we are celebrating with a party this Saturday!  Wish me luck because this will be the first gathering of a gaggle of kids I've been to since I've been pregnant and I hope it doesn't scare me too much!  :)  

I started out with some new papers from Cosmo Cricket and stamped the bicycle and sentiment from Vintage Rides directly onto the papers and then stamped and pieced the little balloons from a coordinating paper.  I colored the bicycle with a silver gel pen and then added a little banner and some sequins for fun.

Thanks for visiting today and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Supplies:  Stamps (TCM), DP/Chipboard Banner - Summer Love collection (Cosmo Cricket), Gel Pen (Sakura), Ink - Basic Black (SU!), Sequins (Studio Calico), Hang Tag String (The Kraft Outlet), Cardstock - Blush Blossom (SU!)
