I needed an extra-special birthday card, so I pulled out all the stops: big honkin’ bow, a faceted button, some rhinestones and even a glimmer brad and some glimmer hearts:
I had this piece of Daffodil Delight DP sitting on my desk, along with the ribbon, which came on a gift, so I decided to use ‘em up! I stuck pretty close to the sketch, using the Chalk Talk stamp set and die for my tag, and another piece of Polka Dot Parade DP for my banner. I added a row of bling to the top of the banner, and glue-dotted a glimmer brad to the center of my button:
I just love the blackboard-effect of this stamp set!
Cassidy discovered a box under my desk that had some styrofoam peanuts in it….oh, what a mess:
It was like staticky snow! And you can see I was trying to encourage her to clean it up with a dustpan & broom…..which she did, eventually. And then…..

ReplyDeleteCute pictures of Cassidy in her snowstorm. I'm glad she finally cleaned it up though.
Those peanuts look so innocent until you start to clean them up...ugh! At least you could look at the beautiful card with it's bodacious bow and bling and smile at the job well done!!!
