40th Birthday Thank You's

In March I created an invitation and matching decorations for a 'garden party' themed 40th birthday celebration. The birthday girl wanted to send some matching thank you cards to all those who helped make the event so special for her.

I created these cards using the same pink colour scheme as the original invitations, with the handstamped floral feature from the invitations forming a subtle base for the layered butterfly.

Inside the card was a full colour digitally designed thank you message.

Fresh Vintage Poppy Parade

I've been looking forward to creating a card with this pretty red and vanilla DSP from the Everyday Enchantment Paper pack.  I chose to add black to the mix for a sophisticated look.  The central image is from the matching Fresh Vintage Stamp Set which just retired last month.  I've coloured this in Poppy Parade Red and Black to match.  The 'best wishes' sentiment is from Petite Pairs Stamp Set.

40th Birthday Invitations

Ang's invitations were based on her chosen theme of a garden party, which meant pretty flowers and lots of beautiful butterflies.  Her favourite colour is pink so this was chosen as the primary card backing with a range of pink and orange hues used in the main floral imagery and in the mix of butterflies.

Birthday Collection - March's Class by Correspondence

March's Class by Correspondence includes a collection of three very different birthday cards.  The first is this trendy happy birthday card featuring imagery from the Grunge Rock Stamp Set.  The mix of blacks, blues, grey and vanilla on a Crumb Cake base makes it perfect for any rock music loving male.

The second birthday card is this very feminine design featuring stamps exclusive to the current Sale-a-Bration.
The mix of soft pinks and greens as well as the floral imagery makes this card perfect for a girly girl celebrating any age.

This very cute children's card finishes the trio.  It is a female version of the card with spinner created in February's class.  Featuring the cute animal imagery from the Fox and Friends set, this interactive card will be a perfect card for any young girl.

As you spin the image in the window changes, these a just a few of the other cuties on the wheel:

Freshly Made Fresh Vintage

This is a sneak peek at one of the projects that will be available in my Class by Correspondence next month. 

I've just completed another big job - a set of invitations for a friend's 40th birthday party.  I look forward to sharing pictures with you shortly after the event in March.  This card tonight is inspired by the lovely soft colours chosen for her 'garden' party theme.
