CP75, Act 41 - Happy Birthday




Hello! Sorry I have been absent for awhile. I started purging and cleaning my stamp room and it took longer than I thought it would. :) I'm still not quite done, but found some things in my mess that I still hadn't used. Yes, there are actually a lot of things (too many to admit to) that I bought and haven't used yet.

I made this quick card for this week's sketch over at Card Patterns and Stacey's Curtain Call color challenge. Marina mist is by far my favorite color that came out of the SU color renovation.

Thanks for stopping today!

Stamps: Dot Spot, Birthday Bash Sentiments - Papertrey Ink
Paper: Gina K white, night of navy, kraft, marina mist
Ink: Palette Noir, Versamark
Accessories: Ribbon, PTI impression plate, rhinestones, Nestabilities

So it's not just me who finds new, unopened toys to play with when she tidies her stampy area?! ;D
I love your combination of Dot Spot with that embossing folder which totally enhances your circular focal point - so clever!
Hugs,
