A Classy and Fabulous Birthday

Happy Friday! It's a beautiful and warm one here (at least so far; thunderstorms are forecast), and I hope it's nice wherever you are, too. It's been too long since I've linked up with Unity's Friends with Flair, so I'm glad to have a birthday card to share today.



I do love this set. I also love that you can design your own dress with it... funny how mine always end up with some red in them. The colours were also inspired by this month's Unity colour challenge. I masked the sentiment so I could stamp it in two colours and use the two halves to frame the main image. Inside the card, I matched the two fonts as best I could on my computer so I could write "Have a fabulous birthday". 
Have a great weekend!



Supplies: white & Stampin' Up pear pizzazz cardstock, Basic Grey True Love patterned paper, Unity Undeniably You stamps, Memento tuxedo black, Brilliance graphite black & Versamark inks, Zing clear and Ranger rich red embossing powders, Spellbinders circle & scalloped oval dies, pop-dot tape

Love the colors. Besides, I think Red IS Classy...so it works well with the sentiments. Love the dress and the DSP paper that works so well with it. Great to see a post from you again.

I really like the layout of this card... the two sentiment circles really make them stand out and the shaped oval for the image makes it pop
