Jordy has a birthday party to go to next week and I've noticed that I never have any teenage/girly type cards in my stash. So my goal this summer is to add a few fun cards in here and there. When I want teenage girl type cards, I always reach for my Stamping Bella stamps. I love the whimsical images, especially the one I chose to work with today called presentahbella.
I stamped the images on solid cardstock and then again on some new My Mind's Eye patterned paper. Most of the papers and twine I used today are from the Lime Twist collection. I used my Copic markers to color in the girls on the solid cardstock and a few more to color in some spots on the paper pieced presents.
I adhered the presents to the main images and added a few quote bubbles that I cut out from this adorable paper. I stamped *happy birthday* sentiments onto the bubbles and popped them up with pop dots.
Next up it was time for a few embellishments. Using more of the Lime Twist paper I cut some strips and then notched the end to create little flags.
These were adhered to my card fronts and then buttons were added using some Lime Twist twine.
I also added some staples using my Tiny Tim stapler + some clear rhinestones that I colored with my Copics. Instant matching.
And here's my little stash-o of birthday cards for the girls to choose from.
I stitched around the focal image to add a little interest to the white + I added some glitter. Love all the mixy matchy colors in this one line as you can see on all my little notched strips of patterned paper.
Again, I love those little quote bubbles. Just too cute.
Hope you enjoy! Do you have some favorite stamps to use for teenage girl cards? I'd love to hear about your favorites.

Thanks so much for sharing your ideas for teens' cards! I so struggle with this age group, but you've given me some good ideas.
