Kerry's Birthday Card
Well its my daughters 16th Birthday today and here is the card which I made for her. The stamp is from Crafty Individuals, I had forgotten I had it and only found it when I was looking for something under the bed the other day!! I have coloured the image slightly with Distress Inks and added a bit of shimmer with Glimmer Mist. The papers are from Magnolia and I have stamped the edges of them with another gorgeous Stempelglede flourish stamp. The butterfly and border are made with Martha Stewart punches and I have added a Cuttlebug corner.
I am hoping to start another card today, depending on what the boys are doing although they are both out playing in the woods at the moment - I wonder how muddy they will get!!!!!!
Have a good Thursday.
I would like to enter this card in the following challenges.
A Spoonfull of Sugar - Punches
Simon Says Stamp - Punches
Papertakes - Shimmer
