Happy Birthday

Good Morning Bloggers!
Sunday is my step moms birthday and I wanted to get a card made and in the mail before her birthday. I have a horrible habit of mailing things at the last min. 

I have made an easel card. Its the second one I have ever made and I like the way this one turned out  much better than my first. 


I cut the base out with my Cricut "StoryBook" cart. 
This adorable image is a digital stamp from Wee Stamps called "Sweet Blossom" and I have colored it using my Copics. 
The papers I have had for a couple of years and just couldnt bring myself  to use them. They are Chatter Box Scrapbook papers "Violet Parlor Paisley", "Light Parlor Plaid", and "Light Parlor Stripe". 
 The flowers I used on this card are "Recollections" from Michaels.  
The die cut on the base of the card is Spellbinders "Fancy Tag"  and the sentiment is from Inkadinkado "All Occasions" stamp set. 

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you all have a wonderful week.

    Beautiful card, Shannin! The papers are absolutely delicious, so I can see why you had a hard time actually using them! Gorgeous colors and layout, and of course that adorable image! Your step-mom will love it!
