Stamping 411 - Sketch & Stampin Royalty - KISS

This is my first Stamping 411 challenge.  I really like this sketch/layout and think this card also falls into the KISS (keep it simple, sweetie) challenge over at Stampin' Royalty.

I did a Relay for Life foundraiser today (all birthday cards) and this was one of the cards everyone created.  It's hard to see in the phots but the kraft (soon to be known as crumb cake) is textured using the distressed texturz plate.  I haven't used the In Colors much this year and thought they would be a nice change.  I think this card makes a great birthday card but also be used as a graduation card, for recovery, or anything else you can think of.

Mojo 131 - Make a Wish!

I’m hosting a card class fundraiser for a local Relay for Life team in April. Relay for Life is a 24 hour walk that raises money for the American Cancer Society (ACS).  ACS's current slogan is “The Official Sponsor of Birthdays” and I thought it would be fun to do all birthday cards for the class.  Here is the first card, inspired by this week's Mojo sketch.  The class fee will go directly to the team.  It should be a great time!
