Julie Makes Cards: CAS-ual Fridays Ribbon Challenge

If you're looking for the Totally Stampalicious Feburary New Release and Blog Hop you can find it HERE

I'm here today to share the card I made for this week's CAS-ual Fridays challenge. The challenge is Party Card with Ribbon. You can find the challenge HERE!

I am always in need of birthday cards so this challenge was perfect. In fact my daughter is going to her best friend's birthday party this weekend so as usual I am way early getting the card done - LOL!

Supplies:
Stamps: Big Hugs
Paper: Papertrey Ink White
Ink: Memento Black, Melon Mambo
Accessories: Ribbon, Large Pearls, Corner Rounder Punch

I LOVE how easy this was to put together. I stamped the happy birthday 4 times in black, starting from the bottom and working my way up. The fifth happy birthday was stamped with melon mambo ink. The ribbons were adhered and then I added a few large pearls and corner rounded the bottom edges.

I saw this happy birthday sentiment on a few sample cards at Archivers and just had to have it. I love the clean crisp font and the size is just perfect. I had a bit of trouble locating the set but finally found it. The stamp set is called Big Hugs.

I'm also including this in the following challenges:
