I have a little birthday card to share with you today.
This card was inspired by CASology’s Week 135 Cue Card: MINI.
To make this card, first I made a stencil with a EK Success Mini Retro Flower punch. Next, I used an ink blending tool to apply SU’s pool party ink to the card stock. I also used the same punch to make some flowers out of some left over watercolor paper from another card. I also cut some strips from the same paper to make the stems.
Next I stamped the polka dots from PTI’s Polka Dot Basics II stamp set. This is a smaller than usual card, measuring 3 3/4″ x 5 1/2″.
I’m going to play this over at CASology’s Mini Challenge and Seize the Birthday’s Anything Goes, Uniko Studio’s Birthday Challenge and SSS’s Monday Challenge: Anything Goes this week.
Thanks for stopping by!

What a lovely card, Melissa! I’m glad to see you used the punch to make your flowers. (It’s been a while I saw people used a punch instead die. Your card reminded me those times when I was so into collecting all kinds of punches.) Thanks so much for playing along with us at CASology. Hugs, May
