I feel like I say this a lot but... I had so much fun making this card!  The White Christmas Photopolymer Stamp Set is SO much fun to use!  I was inspired to make a layered card by our beloved Pinterest... love that place!  I get so many ideas from there!  Woot!  Woot!...

My sweet nephew just turned eight years old and I took this opportunity to create a sweet birthday card for him.  One that he wouldn't just toss asside but one that he would look at and really appreciate... even at age eight.  

This boy is so fun.  So creative....

I just can't get enough of this Wonderous Wreath stamp set and then bring in these GORGEOUS feathers from the Four Feathers stamp set.

Then there's this color combo!  Smoky Slate, Coastal Cabana, and of course my fave... Calypso Coral.  This bright and beautiful color...

I suppose it's the silver embossing powder that gives it a fe...

This project was developed by accident ;D  Well, I guess all accidents are projects in the making!  I intended to make a holder for some tags (tutorial on those coming soon!) but it turned out to be too big for the dozen tags I had made.  

The one on the righ...

I really need to dig into my scrap bins more as they are too full and I don't have the heart to toss any of it!  This card is made completely from that said bin!

A little mismatching, dry embossing with the Honeycomb Embossing Folder, complimentive ink (Calypso Coral),...

This card surprised me when I was finished making it.  It was monochromatic and I didn't even try.  It said so much and said so little.  And I love when a card does that to you!  

The colors used were Calypso Coral, Blushing Bride and Pink Pirouette Cl...
