Day of Birthday Cards

I've been enjoying a fun day crafting in my newly "cleaned" craft room.  I've been having such a hard time crafting and getting my mojo up and going, so I figured cleaning would help.  Well, that turned into taking out two bookshelves and one storage unit, moving my table to face the windows so I can look out side and moving my calendar stand (holds all my 12x12 papers) to the middle of the room.

I found that once done I couldn't wait to start crafting.  I'm starting off by making some birthday cards. Over at Stampnation it's their 8th birthday and there's always a big party to celebrate.  Making birthday cards is just the beginning.

I created the first card using the challenge #299 over at Stampnation for inspiration.  Such a great way to get the juices flowing

I decided to keep them pretty simple and quick to make.  I stamped a sentiment on each white cardstock first and then went back with different images to add some color.

I love the look of white card bases with one layer of color and "popping" up the top piece of white. It adds just a tad bit dimension.
