Whatever Wednesday - Rustic Birthday Girl



Remember that wood grained patterned paper in the recently retired Woodland Walk designer series paper?  It serves today as a fence element!  I love how the marvelous Pennant Parade stamp set pink flags give a feminine touch to the woodsy, natural paper.


I saw this sweet picture below on the Love of Family and Home blogspot and knew I had to replicate the rustic yet feminine expression in a greeting card.

NOTES
Stamp sets: Jumble Alphabet, Pennant Parade, Bring On the Cake
cs: Whisper White, textured and smooth
inks:  Classic Stampin' Pads - Melon Mambo & Old Olive; Stampin' Write Markers - Old Olive & Melon Mambo
Designer Series Paper:  Woodland Walk (recently retired from the 2010-11 IB&C, but you can substitute the wood grained designer series paper in the "Well Worn" dsp from Stampin' Up's current 2011-12 IB&C!)
punches:  Petite Pennants Builder, 3/4" circle, Crop-o-dile
other:  Stampin' Dimensionals, eyelets, paper snips
How did I construct the fence?  Just lined up the strips, taped one strip across & then punched holes across with the Crop-o-dile.  Eyelets were set with the Crop-o-dile.
And the message?  I colored on the rubber stamp with Stampin' Write markers, alternating colors on each word.  Then, I stamped the message onto Whisper White cs & used paper snips to rough cut each word.
Where are Stampin' Dimensionals used?  Under the fence, under each circle punched letter.

Happy Wednesday!  Are you registered for my stamp camp this evening?  Can't wait!
