Happy 40th!

Good morning!  It's TCP Tuesday - time for a new challenge and our Hipster Hostess this week is Lori. She has a yummy Color Challenge so be sure to check out her blog, Alma's blog and the The Cat's Pajamas Forum on Splitcoaststampers for the details and samples.

I haven't had a chance to make my card yet so I thought I'd share a card I made for last week's release.  The last set that was previewed got a lot of people excited and is definitely a winning set.  Build-A-Bingo was the brainchild of our own fabulous Leigh O'Brien.  The set is full of all the sentiments and images you need to make bingo cards for every occasion!

I chose to make a 40th Birthday card. It was easy to highlight the #40 using the little circle stamp and then I added a present in the center square popped up on a button. I even did some sponging!! GASP!! Yea me!  hahaha - you probably all know I don't do that much!  :)

A few close-ups of the card and the Easy Rosette/Butterfly embellie.

I cut 2 Exotic Butterflies, but the one on the bottom I didn't add an extra shim so that the holes stayed in place - that  way you can see them through the patterned paper.  I think it makes the butterfly more visible on the patterned paper Easy Rosette.

Be sure to check out what the Cat Packers have made for TCP Tuesday and we'd love to have you play along!! Thanks for stopping in today! I hope you're off to a great week!
