Birthday Wishes/ CR84FN 31

***My card was scheduled to post last night with everyone elses and somehow it didn't post.  So here we are.  :)

WOW!  This has been the busiest two weeks I have had in a long time.  I feel like I have horribly neglected all my wonderful blog friends.  Between the new release at The Craft's Meow and working an extra day at work for two weeks in a row, I am wiped out.  I did however squeeze a few minutes in to make a birthday card for Andrea Matthews, my design team mate at CR84FN  Thank goodness she lives just one state up from me, it doesn't have far to go.  Here's to hoping that it makes it on time.  HAPPY  BIRTHDAY Andrea!



I LOVE this color combo.  I am sure that a lot of you Shabby Chic girls will too.  I decided to use my beautiful Basic Grey Capella papers and the PTI set Mat Stack 3.  I used 2 different PTI butterfly dies and stitched them together.  I found a piece of pink twill ribbon in my stash.  I know I have some pale yellow hiding somewhere....now if I can just find it.  :)  The stick pin is from Maya Road and the lace trim is from Spare Parts which is Hobby Lobby brand.


Look at this pretty graphic.  Just lovely isn't it?

    Such a pretty birthday card. Love the green pin for a splash of color. Maybe your cool colors will cool you off in that hot weather of yours. I'm glad it's not that hot here, just humid!
