A simple birthday card....


Today I finally had time to make a birthday card. I have made so many Christmas cards lately that I've gotten behind on birthdays...ack!
Jen70 had a challenge on her blog this week to make a birthday card using shades of pinks and browns. PERFECT for what I needed!
This is a simple card. The Designer Paper is from a stack that my neighbour gave to me. I used Close to Cocoa and Regal Rose cardstock and the stamped images are from Sassy Stems and Stem Sayings. I finally got to open my new Regal Rose Grosgrain Ribbon....so pretty and easy to work with! I watercoloured with my aqua painter and re-inkers...still practicing on that!
Have a GREAT night!
I'll be back shortly with the winner of the blog challenge ;)
