Birthday Princess

Hello, my friend Beatrix is the host of this weeks "old Magnolia" challenge her choice was to use "Tilda with strawberry shirt". What a cute stamp to use for girls birthday cards :-)

Above is a close up shot so you can see how beautiful all the Shimmerz paints shine when the card is moved. I used for her socks "Candle Light", for her Shirt and on the decorative border "Bubble Gum", for her Crown "Marigold and finally her skirt "Celery Green".

Laurel said...

Sometimes special things make me think of a thing by Grandma use to say - "cuter than a bug's ear" Have no idea what a bugs ear really looks like but she only said it for things she really thought were specially cute - This card is that cute! Cute colors and ribbon done special and how she is perched up on it and cute paper! Love that stamp - I will have to go to the International site and pick it up! Hugs

Vicki said...

I just adore the way you decorate the inside of your cards too!
