Where's The Fire?!!

Whew it's Friday!

How's everyone this morning? This felt like such a short week with Monday being a Holiday. Today I am sharing with you a birthday card i made. This image just absolutely cracks me up! It's called Fire Out set (sku#4371) by Art Impression stamps. I have a dear friend that is turning 50 so this will be the perfect card to rub it in LOL! Especially since I am so much younger than her (wink, wink).



This is a fairly simple design using lots of layers. All the patterned paper is layered twice with matching cardstock. Paper piecing is fun and a great way to match your choice of papers to your image. I matched the die cut border and her blazer this way. I am in love with any shape that is "stitched" so of course I had to use the SSS Stitched Rectangles. True to me, I sparkled her up with Stardust Stickles on all the green parts as well as on her party hat. I also used silver Wink of Stella on the fire extinguisher parts. 


Copics used:
Skin & lips: E00, E11, R20, RV17
Fire extinguisher: R22, R24, R27, W7, silver Wink of Stella
Dress:  R81, R83, R85
Hair: T1, T3, T5,
Green parts: G40, G43,
Ground and shadows: T0, B0000


I also tried to make a card that was shaped using the Spellbinders Grand Scalloped Ovals. Not sure if I love it but it's ok none the less.

Simple design on the inside!
I hope everyone has a great weekend! Chat at you soon!
