A Special Birthday

Hello Happy Wednesday! I hope you all are having a fantastic week. I was lucky enough to get together on Saturday with my wonderful stamping friends. We always have so much fun when we have a day together. We laugh, create, eat, just a fantastic time all day. We all do a little bit of everything, journaling, cardmaking, scrapping it is so much fun to see what everyone is working on in person.

This is the card that I created for my daughter's birthday about 3 weeks ago. She loves things that are lacey, has sparkle and lots of pearls. She puts roses on everything she creates so I thought this rose image from Just Inklined would be perfect for her card. I am so glad she really liked it.
