Soho Birthday

I just LOVE the new Soho Subway Designer Series Paper!  It is so much fun and easy vintage!  I CASEd this card from Ilina Crouse.  It is hard to tell but the Happy Birthday label is stamped twice, once in Early Espresso and once in Crisp Cantaloupe.  I punched out the Early Espresso and taped it to the card.  I hand cut the Happy Birthday on the inner line (so you can see the Espresso lines) and adhered it with a Dimensional.  Enjoy!




Supplies:
Stamp Set(s) - Label Love
Card Stock - Baked Brown Sugar, Island Indigo, Very Vanilla, Soho Subway DS
Ink - Early Espresso, Crisp Cantaloupe
Accessories - Artisan Label Punch, Dimensionals
