Happy Birthday birdie.

So ask me why I put that birdie there. Go ahead and ask me. I'll tell you why I put that birdie there: because I had a big ol' open space to fill! Yeah, not sure that goes there, but I don't care, manly birthday cards are what I have so few of in my stash and this Pink Paislee Amber Road paper just lends itself to masculine cards.

This week the Jacksonbelle Embellishments Design Team is workin' a color challenge. The colors are green, blue, red and black. So I worked some Pink Paislee with a little bit of Jenni Bowlin in the middle and then embellished with some Prima ribbon and birdie with my fave Happy Birthday stamp from Inkadinkado.

Don't forget the BIG CONTEST going on this month - - you can read all the details HERE. And be sure to stop by the Jacksonbelle Embellishments blog to see what the other girls have created this week.

AND AND AND - - Jacksonbelle Embellishments is having a SALE right now. FALL (all caps) to get 25% off - - woooo, head on over for some goodies like the new Basic Grey or Jenni Bowlin paper packs!

Have a happy day!
