Hello!
If you are looking for my Totally Stampalicious blog hop post, please go HERE!
My post today is to celebrate my CRAZY friend, Barbara's, birthday!!! Tammy was so sweet to put this all together for Barb!! Happy Birthday and enjoy your day Barb!!! The entire blog hop list is posted HERE on Tammy's blog. If you are on track, you would have come here from France's blog!!! Here is my card that I AM going to send to Barb today!!! LOL!!
The layout of this card is based on this week's Mojo Monday sketch found HERE! The base is So Saffron CS with a mat of True Black and then SU! newspaper print DP. The next layer is again True Black and a pattern of decorative paper from Lily Bee's This and That collection. The yellow polka dot paper is also from the Lily Bee collection. The sentiment is from Verve's Love Deepens set and was stamped using Black Memento ink. Under the flower I added black seam binding, green felt leaves cut using Verve's Elegant Leaves die, flowers from the Great Friend stamped on the SU! newsprint paper & cut out, I added a vintage brad from SU! and a Tim Holtz stick pin. I tied the tag on that I stamped using one of the Happy Birthday sentiments included in Verve's Big Wish set and punched it out using my Martha Stewart tag punch.
Here is a closer look ~
Thank you so much for hopping by! Your next stop is sweet Vicki!!!
