One awesome blog friend is celebrating a birthday today!
Happy birthday Anita from My papercraft world ! May you be blessed for being such a kind and loving person. Always ready with a kind and supportive word!
This one is especially for you :
I used a stencil cut with my Silhouette, I have used it twice before, still loving it!
You can take a look at the previous attempts Here & Here .
I used Hero arts ink cubes : Orange Soda, Soft Cantaloupe and Butter Bar.
The sentiment is also from Hero arts and is called : Messages-with-flourish.
The butterfly is a from the Silhouette online store.
I am entering my card to the following challenges :
Casology ~ monochrome
AAA cards ~ CAS orange
Hero arts ~ Nature challenge
Addicted to stamps ~ make your mark

Thanks so much for looking !
