Birthday Card

Good Morning!  I hope everyone had a great weekend. 

Today I'd like to share a simple birthday card I made for my niece Donna.  It is a 5 x 7 inch card made out of Recollections cream cardstock.  The layer on top is a beautiful floral from K and Company cut at 4 3/4 x 6 3/4.  The center medallion was cut using the largest of the Nestabilities Floral Ovals.  The ribbons (pink ribbon is layered over lacy cream ribbon) are from the $1.00 bins at Michaels and the pearls are by Recollections.  The Happy Birthday! stamp is from Close To My Heart and I stamped it using their Cotton Candy ink.


I hope you liked my card.  I'd love to hear what you think. This card has been Linked Up on the Pink Cricut Tuesday Link Up Party.

Hugs,
Paula

    I love it! How beautiful! I especially love that ribbon from the $1 spot-I never find cute ribbon, it's definitely a hit or miss. Thanks for sharing!

      Thanks Sarabeth. I love digging through those bins of ribbon they usually have outside the store. It is hit or miss though. Sometimes the color combinations are so awful but other times you find something wonderful.
