More Glitz De-stashing with a Birthday Pocket Card


I LOVE this card! I love it not for the work, but for the product. Nearly everything in this card is vintage stash, and it's killing me to use it up. The papers are Glitz Love Nest with a bit of Echo Park Dots & Stripes and Prima Lifetime.


I again made the file folder leaves using Ranger's UTEE, but this time the Distress inks are Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron (fast becoming my favorite green). These roses are vintage, too, and I'm not sure of where I bought them.


The Petaloo burlap flower is new (a birthday gift from my granddaughter, Katie). The yellow rose buds and yellow S-10 blossom are from I Am Roses. The 3-D butterfly sticker is vintage Recollections. I bought them on close-out at Michaels in Harrisonburg, VA, the very first year we stayed at our friend's condo (so we're talking long time ago).


The colorful printed chipboard disc... with the yellow button on top... and the oval one that says FAMILY are both vintage Prima. The Wild Card is from October Afternoon. The crocheted lace is from Surplus City in MD.


I used dies by Spellbinders: Scalloped Ovals and Foliage, and Alterations: Tiny Tabs & Tags and Thinlits Doily.


 I am truly a lime green lover, and this card certainly brings that fact to the forefront!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Oh wow, Linda, this is absolutely stunning!! The layers are amazing!! I love all of the elements you used!! Wow!! What a gorgeous card this is!! You know, when Twisted Citron came out I thought I'd never use that color but I had to have it because I have all of the Distress Inks. It's become my favorite, too!! I use it more than any other color!! Have a great weekend!! Big hugs :)
