It felt good to stamp again too. Janet asked that we do birthday cards, one for a girl and one for a boy. Here is what I came up with. I did start with some inspiration from a demonstrator forum called 'Stampin' Connections'.
The first card, which is the 'girl' card, uses some new product from the Occasions mini.
The 'frosting' uses the new 'Glimmer paper' (121790 - $3.95). Love it! The glitter does not come off at all. It's easy to punch through too. And what girl doesn't like a little bling!!
I left the little tag open so the age could be stamped or written on it.
Other products used are:
Early Espresso cardstock - (119686 - $6.95)
Real Red cardstock - (102482 - $6.95)
Very Vanilla cardstock - (101650 - $8.50)
Jolly Holiday DSP - (117159 - $9.95) - it's not just for Christmas !!!

Party this Way clear stamp set - (120609 - $11.95)

The second card, which is the 'boy' card, uses products from the main Idea Book & Catalog:
