Happy Birthday On Tree Rings

The 2017-18 Stampin' Up! catalog offers some

really fun new accessories.  This is the new 

Happy Birthday Thinlits on page 213.   It is fancy

and swoopy, so that you can used it for any

gender or aged birthday celebrant.

The other accessory used was that lovely layer

of Wood Textures Designer Series Paper Stack,

found on page 187.  I live this stack and enjoyed

placing the Birthday Thinlits on the tree rings.

Somehow, the two went really well together. 

I added layers of So Saffron behind the Wood Textures

layer and the "Happy Birthday", to help bring out

these layers.  The candy dots were colored with

a black sharpie, to coordinate with the rest of the card.
