Just Us Girls #456 - Word Week

Ina has chosen 'celebrate' for Word Week at Just Us Girls.  That leaves it wide open to interpretation and we hope you'll be inspired to make a card for this week's challenge. 

I took advantage of the Concord and 9th birthday sale and ordered their Birthday Stacks stamps and dies.  I couldn't wait to play with them once they arrived.
There is everything you need to make a keepsake card in the set and this is the first one I did.  The candles are colored with Zigs and I backed the celebrate die with a black shadow so it would show up better.  The nice thing about this is it folds down to fit in an A2 envelope.
All the measurements and instructions are on the C9 website.  Once I knew what I was doing I had to make a second card for my great-granddaughter who will be three on the 15th.

I thought she'd like the pinks and purples with a little green and aqua added.  I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment from Clearly Besotted on the back.  Here's another look at how it folds.

Enough from me.  Now it's time for you to see what the rest of Design Team and our guest designer Julie Beech have made and then make a card of your own for the challenge.  If you are our Chic of the Week you may be our guest designer in November.
