SC 91/13: REV UP THE FUN 18th BIRTHDAY CARD

I have not been able to create "just for fun" very much lately, and I miss it.  I checked out the current challenge at Sunny Challenges & Creations, and was inspired to make a birthday card for a special young man who is celebrating his birthday this week.

Here's the sketch to use as the basis for a card:




My Stampin' Up! Color Coach suggested I use Midnight Muse, Cherry Cobbler and Pool Party together.  Here's what I came up with:



Stamps: Rev Up the Fun, Memorable Moments, Gorgeous Grunge, Express Yourself
Card: Midnight Muse, Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler, Pool Party Core'dinations
DSP: Midnight Muse Patterns Designer Series Paper (retired)
Ink: Midnight Muse, Cherry Cobbler, Pool Party and Crumb Cake stampin' pads, Jet Black Staz-On inkpad, Versamark inkpad
Other: Cherry Cobbler stampin' emboss powder, Deco Labels framelits, Regals candy dots, Itty Bitty shapes punch, 1 1/4" Circle punch, 1 3/8" Circle punch, 1 1/2" Circle punch (not SU!), Chevron embossing folder, sanding block, sponge dauber, Stamp-a-ma-jig
