Gray Birthday

I hadn't used this stamp in forever, but a friend borrowed it and when she returned it, it made me want to use it:) So, here it is.

The main stamp is from an old retired Stampin' Up set called Garden Collage. I stamped it in Going Gray, colored it lightly with Copics and matted with gray. I mounted it on foam squares. The sentiment was stamped in black and is from a Papertrey set.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

  1. Beautiful card. Never would have thought to put gray with it. It sure works though!

  2. This is really pretty and delicate, Lynette. I love the text background and how you've just picked out the butterfly and flower, but in such a subtle way. Beautiful.

    Thanks for your lovely comment - so glad you're enjoying our journey to our new house! I watch a lot of house renovation progs on TV and going over budget seems to be a natural part of the process lol! We are in good company, at least! I don't think it will be anything too serious, but it would have pleased me greatly to have remained within budget.

  7. I still have this stamp, too. I look at it now and then and one of these days I'll get it out and do something with it. Love it in the soft gray tones. Beautiful card!
