Stamping INKspirations April Blog Hop - Birthdays

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 


Thank you for visiting my blog, I really do appreciate it and hope you like the project. Today I am hopping with the Stamping Inkspirations blog hop and the theme this month is Birthdays. I have decided to make a child's birthday card. I had so much fun creating this card for a little girl who is soon to be 6. I have used some soon to be retired products in this card. I am really going to miss Pretty Peacock, I just love it, I will also miss the beautiful font on the Well Written dies and the cute butterfly and the Ballon Bouquet punch is just so useful. These items will remain in my stash for sure. As they are retiring they are only available while stocks last so if you want them I suggest you grab them now as they will soon be gone.
