Happy Birthday Claire!!

So my youngest granddaughter Claire has passed the one year old milestone this week!  We are going to celebrate her birthday this Saturday, and I made this card for her.  I totally cased a card I saw on Pinterest this week from a gal called Karen...here is the link  Karen Hallam!!  I used a couple different colors in my card but pretty much copied her design!!  Of course Claire  at 1 year old could care less what her card looks like, but her Mom might like it & put it in her scrapbook!!  Thanks Karen for the inspiration!!  Except for one coral colored sheet of paper from the Lawn Fawn Petite Paper Pack, all the rest of the patterned paper came from the Heidi Grace Designs Sunshowers 6 x 6 paper pad.  I used a myriad of supplies to make this card  come to life so I will just state them quickly & be done with it.  I have actually vowed not to order many cardmaking supplies over the last couple of years, and was quite proud that what I did use, came from supplies on hand..some of which I had not used before!!  The oval balloons...an inside die from Spellbinder's Fancy Framed Tags Two.  The inner & outer scalloped strips on the left ..Spellbinder's Classic Scallop dies.  The two circle dies that frame the number 1..Spellbinders.  The 3 small stitched banner dies on the bottom right side of the circle are probably the only new item I've bought in the last year from Simon Says Stamp Bundle of Stitched Shapes set!  The sentiment is from a Stampin Up set I bought years ago called "On Your Birthday"!  Thanks for stopping by...hope you like it!!
