RIC#78 + FMS174 + Seize the Birthday + Simon Says Texture

One of the benefits of reorganizing my stamps and dies into a theme based system is uncovering a few old favorites that have been hiding at the back of the bins. I immediately thought of these Elizabeth Crafts candle dies when I saw the striped top in the Runway Inspired Challenge #78 photo. The sketch from Freshly Made Sketches #174 provided the perfect design and I am also linking this card to Seize the Birthday and the Wednesday Stamp Challenge at Simon Says Stamp to use texture.




A Darice embossing folder provides the diagonal lines on the red panel and the sentiment is from an older PTI set, Birthday Bash.




A little Wink of Stella provides a touch of glitter to the candle flames.
