Happy Birthday to You . . . A Pinterest Scraplift

Sometimes I wonder what I did before Pinterest.  I have a really, really large general card board on that site.  Anytime I see a card that I like, or even one that has an element that inspires me, up it goes.  I know I could never come close to using the inspiration of all of my pins, although I'll settle for a few.  So occasionally I will pin something that will spur me into wanting to creating something just like it, a pure scraplift if you will.  I did that with this card I found a few weeks ago.  I didn't have the exact same tools, but I used what I had in order to create something I really like.  

 

I didn't have the exact chevron die, but used the one I had closest to it.  I also used Print and Cut with my Silhouette Cameo to get the sentiment on the card.  It took a few tries to get it in the right place but I'm happy with the results.  I like it when I can achieve pretty much the same look without having to purchase anything!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
