Hello! It's day 3 of sneak peek week and today we are showcasing the new stamp set called Whimsical Calendar and the new XL Label Die. This set is PERFECT for totally personalizing birthday cards! The patterned papers on this first card are from the Madeline collection from Prima... Here's another calendar b-day card...
For this one I also used the Fun Borders set to stamp the pink border on the bottom. The patterned paper is from Basic Grey's Sweet Threads collection.
For this one I used the Polka Dot Surprise set for the sentiment. And for this last card, I wanted to used the "negative" of the die...
I decided to use up some ribbon scraps, and I just LOVE how this card turned out! I mean I seriously LOVE it!
I stamped the sentiment from the Wow So Many Candles set on the Curly Label Die. I popped up the sentiment so it's flush with the negative kraft piece. OK...pop on over to Emma's BLOG to see all the greatness over there!
