Allsorts Challenge ~ Birthday

A new  Allsorts Challenge begins today and Dena has chosen the theme of  'Birthday', a nice easy one,  or you can always go with 'Anything Goes'.

For my DT card I made a Staggered Front Card, a fold I first saw on the Nifty Noodles Crafting Facebook page.  The patterned paper is from a paper pad from The Range.  When I was looking though my stash for a piece of sunflower yellow card for the inside of the card, I came across this piece of card which had a lovely textured finish.  The sentiment is a stamp from the Stampin' Up 'Painted Glass set, stamped with Versafine Clair 'Nocturne'.  I punched out the sentiment with a SU punch and layered it on a blue mat which I'd corner rounded.   Four tiny, sunflower yellow pearls finished off my card.

The card folds flat for posting.


There are lots of lovely prizes this month from our generous sponsors, SizzixAALL and CreateAldridge CraftsLavinia and Ruth Hamilton Design.


The Allsorts DT have made some fabulous cards for inspiration.

I am joining in the following challenges:
