Some Jillibean Soup Birthday Cards

So after my earlier attempt at a birthday card which ended up not being one... I decided to try again ;)  I am playing along with the Jillibean Soup Birthday Card Challenge and made 2 more cards.

This first card uses the Macho Nacho Soup collection along with some Unity Stamps (Lucky to Have You) - I thought the stamps were perfect for the Jillibean Soup die cut sentiment - I should have actually put hubby's name... wonder if it would work ;)  I used my MFT tab die to cut out some tabs from the blue paper.

So I was successful in creating a birthday card, but not sure about following a sketch, LOL.  I started the card using Kimber's sketch at 2 Peas but as you can see, I flipped it and id did morph a bit.

I then dug into my Coconut Lime Soup collection, along with some of the new Soup Staples,  to create another birthday card.  I used my Paper  & Such Chicken Wire background along with a sentiment from PTI.  I cut the strawberries with my Preserves Cricut cartridge.  Finally made a twine vine with some Twinery Twine.
