Happy Everything!

It was a beautiful weekend in Central MN! The sun was shining... I got to do a bit of shopping (yup, stimulated that 'ol economy at the local craft store! :o) ), and nothing gets my mojo going like seeing aisles of beautiful papers! lol

But, did I play with those new papers tonight? Nope. I sat down at my table and spied my new Around and About Sentiments set (Papertrey Ink) that hadn't even touched ink yet. (shameful I know!)

I used the polka dot butterfly from Butterfly Kisses (Papertrey Ink) stamped in Fresh Snow ink on Aqua Mist cardstock and embossed with clear embossing powder.
The happy everything sentiment strip is stamped in Berry Sorbet on white cardstock, while the happy birthday circle is stamped in Aqua. The little butterfly is stamped on Berry Sorbet bitty dot basics to match the bottom strip. A few pearls and a scallop border to finish it up.

Now to go find my calendar and see who's birthday is next!
Thanks for stopping by!
