Today's card

So my coworker doesn't know I know it's her birthday tomorrow. Yes, I got my info in a conniving way but oh well everyone should get a card on their birthday. I made this very similar to my last card using the cuppacakeabella but added my new SU sentiment stamp from Curvy lines. I'm not too happy cause I went ahead & mounted the stamps w/o reading the directions & now I realize I was supposed to trim the stamps 1st. Seriously people! If I'm going to spend this kinda $$ on a stamp set it should at least be trimmed. I'm not paying the extra to have them mounted. Oh well, I'll know better next time. So I'm really digging this bella! I stuck w/some of the same Creating Keepsakes paper & the Nana's Nursery paper too from DCWV- I think? & of course I used stickles. FYI, I've been using RoseArt coloring pencils-- no gamsol, just trying my hand at my own shading & I think it looks pretty darn good if I don't say so myself. Anyways.. I added the black brad for a monagram look & the heart pin for extra love... awwww :)
