Figured I'd post some samples of the birthday special that's running through the end of October, since now might be a good time to freshen up your "Happy Birthday" stamp collection!   

This tri-fold card with belly band features Big Bold Birthday – one of the birthday sets I find myself reaching for often.  Talk about versatile!

Here's another one with the same stamp set.  I made this card (left and below) some time ago for a "masculine" swap with my demonstrator group.  Since then, someone has splattered water on the element with the greeting, so unfortunately the ink is a bit blurry now.  The "closed" version is to the left; the "open" version is below.  It's not really all that obvious, but when it's "open", several elements move and pop up.  Notice how the "make a wish" element is only visible in the open version?  One version of this had a balloon and "ribbon" on the right-hand side – but who KNOWS where that one went, lol!
