Avery Elle Birthday Goodies!

 

Happy Wednesday, friends!!

 

It’s been a few days, right?!  LOL  We had a great time with our house guests last weekend, and I’m finally getting caught up in my craft room . . . almost there!  LOL  I’m popping in today to share the last of my Avery Elle guest designer projects.  Today is my last day . . . *sigh*.  I’ve had a great time playing with Avery Elle’s newest stamps, and am so grateful to Jamie for having me!!  She is such a doll, and her products inspire me so much!!  Both of my final projects feature the new stamp set called Cake & Candles, which is a set that is filled to the brim with great and essential birthday sentiments!

 

Cake & Candles 3

 

Here, I paired one of the darling birthday sentiments with the confetti stamps that are included in the set (as well as a few other filler stamps from Celebrate).  Sometimes those little “filler” stamps can be used to make a big impact – I love seeing what I can do with them.  I used Lemon Grass, Raspberry and Aquamarine inks, and the AE Pure White cardstock.  Love that stuff!!

 

Cake & Candles 2

 

I created this project using another of the fun birthday sentiments from Cake & Candles.  The pattern was created with a stencil and the Raspberry and Mimosa pigment inks, applied with a little finger dauber.  The little black dots are from another filler stamp from Circle It.  I love the beautiful impact that the AE pigment inks have when paired with a stencil!!  They went on like buttah!!  I’ve linked all of the products I used below!

 

Well that’s it for me today, friends.  I’m headed back to my craft room today, and might even treat myself to a pedicure this afternoon.  Ahhhh . . . my dogs are barkin’!  LOL  Hope you have a great day today, too!!  Thanks so much for stopping by!
