CELEBRATE

Good morning. I do love the weekends. There is no work and only a few errands to take care of later. I need new tires for my car and that will be the first stop this morning. But, right now it is time to post a new card. I know I have not been making many cards lately and have focused more on mini albums and travel journals. But, cards are still a great love of mine. I have not posted many of the ones that I have made lately. Too many other things that I wanted to show off.
The card this morning is one that I made for a good friend of mine. She is not much into to bling and lots of flowers. But, she loves embossed papers. So here is her card.






I love how this center step card turned out. The embossing was done with the cuttlebug birthday embossing folder and the bubbles folder. The present stamp is I think Inkadinkado, I used my copics to color it and no I don't remember which ones. The paper is Bazzill and the birthday sentiment is from Inkadinkado also. The little tag was made with the Tim Holtz large ticket die and stamped with a portion of the times flies stamp from Inkadinkado. It was colored with copics, I had some glossy accents on certain sections of it like the clocks and the butterfly and when it was dry I went over it with wild honey distressing in from Tim Holtz. The gold paper that I embossed is actually a piece of very heavy Christmas wrapping paper. I love recycling. This paper is perfect for embossing. The balloons are from K and Company. That is it for my card and yes there a few challenges for this one.
