PPA115 & TSSC195

I carved out a little stamping time this afternoon; the beautiful photo of the Pals Paper Arts challenge this week:

paired with Sketch 195 from Mary Jo at Technostamper:

gave me the inspiration I needed to make this birthday card:

Sorry, no crows on this card! (Or spider webs!) There is a bird, though! I used elements from Creative Elements, French Foliage and Nature Walk along with a sentiment from Bring on the Cake. The large flower was heat embossed, then watercolored with ink and an aquapainter. The smaller flower was punched with the Boho Blossoms punch using Tangerine Tango Patterns DP, then sponged and scrunched!

That yummy velveteen ribbon featured in the Holiday Mini catalog makes an appearance here too! Hope my friend likes it!

DD had no water this morning, so they arrived at my house in their PJs and slippers! Oh, and Miss Ellie the Elephant, too! TFL!
