Happy Birthday

Happy Monday morning to you all!  If you are off work today for Martin Luther King day, I hope you enjoy your day.  If you are out and about, come by and see me at the shop, I would love to see you.  Last Monday I had a surprise visit from a fellow StampTVer, Donna Gilman.  It was so nice to meet her in person, she was a joy to visit with.  Thanks Donna!


The card I am sharing with you today is for today's sketch challenge over at StampTV.  I love the simple layout of this card, it was fun to work with. I used the Floral Wreath set as the focal point of my card.




The base card is Ocean Mist cardstock and then I layered it up using some of the new Memory Box Itty Bitty Prints, we received 9 colors in 4 different prints at the store and I know I will be using this alot.  I stamped the flowers on the yellow distressed dot paper and then colored them a bit with Copics to help them pop off of the paper.  The black and Aqua is the print called "Moroccan".  Can you tell I am lovin' these papers?  The ribbon for the bow is from my stash and it matched perfectly.  I love it when that happens!


 Play along with this sketch challenge and upload your card to the StampTV gallery with the tag STVSKSP9 for your chance to win any GKD stamp set valued at $24.95 or less.
