Happy Birthday, Carol

Today my oldest daughter celebrates her birthday…except of course she’s in Australia where it’s tomorrow, so she celebrated it yesterday. I think. Can you blame me for being confused? I hope she’s gotten her package, and here’s what I tucked inside:

Build a Roo stamp set
Very Vanilla, Soft Suede, Blush Blossom and Pixie Pink card stock
Blush Blossom and Soft Suede Classic ink pads
Soft Suede and Pixie Pink ink refill and Stampin’ Write marker; the Aquapainter
Corner Rounder, Scallop Trim border punch and Pretty in Pink taffeta ribbon

Love that little joey in the pocket! I like to stamp the joey on a scrap, trim it and attach it with Tombo – there’s a little more dimension that way and it seems more real.

I took a deep breath and wrote my own sentiment. I always worry I’ll mess it up but for this card I knew just what I wanted to say and nothing else would do. Kristina Werner often hand writes her sentiments and they look great. I just need to learn to be more bold and increase my “font” size.
