Inspired Birthday Card

Howdy friends!  I'm popping in real quick like to share a birthday card I made for a 13 year old girl.  I originally had a different card made for her, but then decided that since this was her first TEEN year I needed something more appropriate - not too kid like, but still cute.  I am participating in Papertrey Ink's July 2011 Blog Hop and here is the inspiration picture.

Gorgeous I tell ya!  My interpretation for a teen birthday card:

I am totally loving this color combo!  Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

Stamp-a-faire #5

I can officially say that I've created my Christmas card goal of 5 per month!!  Now I'm only about 2 months behind.  Thanks to Papertrey Ink and the Stamp-a-faire challenges on Nichole's blog today, I'm quickly knocking out my cards! 

The challenge for #5 was to use a solid stamp and make a border.  I used a stamp from Vintage Ornaments to make icicles.  Cool, huh?

Ok - I'm off to try and get one or two more done before calling it a day!
