Just a Note to Say Happy Birthday!

Umm...can I just tell you that I LOVE my card for today!  'Cause I totally do!  I actually won these papers from Basic Grey and I am SO excited that we are featuring the Heartsong set from Skipping Stones Design today because they are a perfect match!  And then, the sketch for this week was just PERFECT!!!  YAY for things working out to make pretty other things!!!!

So...here it is!

Happy Birthday Butterflies

I stamped the butterflies from the Heartsong set and cut them out to layer over the Basic Grey background papers.  I actually trimmed a border sticker to stamp the sentiment and I LOVE how that part turned out!  The colors are just so pretty and not ones I might normally think to pull together for a card like this one.  I'm happy.  Just say'n.

Happy Birthday Butteflies (detail 1)

And...as per usual, Skipping Stones has a new sketch challenge today where you can play along for a chance to win FREE STAMPS!  You don't have to use SSD stamps to enter, so you have pretty much no excuse!  Do it!!!!  

Jingle Out!
