Argyle Happy Birthday!

OK back with some more Argyle!  LOVING this set!  I used Dot Spot too and a sentiment from Fly Away!



A pretty cool tip here....if you have the blue Jumbo Marvy, you can fit 4 Happy Birthdays from the Fly Away set perfectly in a circle.  I just punched out the circle, put the circle down first, then the block and then arranged the stamp to fit on a quarter of the circle.  Then stamped it 4 times!  Worked PERFECT!


This is all Spring Moss too!  Love LOVE this color!  I am really going to work on using more than one color in a card!  I seem to think monochromatically!  Maybe the next card I make will have 3 colors in it!  LOL!

Thanks for stopping by!

  7. WOW, your argyle looks perfect Laurie! And I love the tip you gave us abotu fitting the sentiment into the circle 4 times...clever and artistic. This card is awesome. Maybe monochromatic is your "thing", don't fix it if it works! lol

  8. Laurie....I have to agree that your argyle is perfect! I could not be that brave to do the argyle in the middle of the card...my luck I would stamp it wrong and not have something to put over it to "fix" it!! :)

    I don't think I've ever used Spring Moss and black but I'm going to give it a try! Very striking!

  9. Gorgeous! I like how you left a border around the edge of the card and the argyle just in the middle. Very cool! And I see nothing wrong with monochromatic when it's done well, as you did here!

  14. Hi, Laurie!!!
    I love your card. I have been loving green for a while now and it's my little boy's favorite color. The argyle background is perfect. The bow is fantastic, too. I thought the Happy Birthday sentiment was a circular stamp. How neat to know you created that look. The green button is perfect! This would be a fantastic masculine card! I have been loving all the eye candy on your blog lately!
