A Happy Birthday Tree!



Here is a fall themed birthday card. I started with Stampin' UP's soft suede for the card base. The pp is from the Basic Grey Indian Summer Collection. I used the arch lattice punch by Martha Stewart on the bottom. The tree was cut out from the Stretch Your Imagination cricut cartridge using soft suede, crushed curry, and very vanilla cardstock. I ran the tree base through the cuttlebug. Then I added some gold stickles to the leaves. The ribbon is chocolate chip grosgrain. The sentiment is from Vintage Labels and punched out with the curly label. I also decorated the inside with the extra strips from the pp. The stamp is from Whimsical Words.
