Happy Birthday Emma!

This card is so her…she is my friend that always is in the "know" when it comes to fashion and trends….but the best thing is – she is truly is one beautiful person! It is not only an honor but it is simply the best to call her my friend! I hope your day is filled with lots of laughter and it is as special as you are!

Now this shoe….is sooooo not me – but it sure does make into a super cute card! The stamp set , Fabulous You, is a perfect name for it and the sentiment is a "keeper" as well! I first stamped it on Whisper White with Black StazOn ( you need to use this if you are going to water color over the stamped image!) Now being that I am challenged in going out of the box, I truly feel like Picasso whenever I use the Aqua Painter! I am sooooo not artistic in any shape or form and I always wanted to do well in Art Class but it never happened!

I simply squeeze my ink pads to get some ink on the top and them and  "paint away"  – letting myself go into that far away place that  would never be able to go to! It truly is fun and it seems like I go through phases of using this method…but in the end  – I always find it to be fun and rewarding!

I ran the Old Olive Card Stock though Mr. Big Shot with the Vintage Wallpaper Folder. I felt it gave it that "Emma" touch! Thought it still needed a little more bling, so I punch out some small flowers and centered a pearl on each one! For the front of the shoe…the perfect accent was the Perfect Plum Taffeta Ribbon tied in a knot!

ONE CUTE CARD!!!

As always, I had to POP something and I had to line my envelope! This liner is perfect for this card…it came from a retired Stampin' Up Paper! I have 3 Birthdays within this week so….you will either LOVE getting new ideas…or you will be sick of seeing Happy Birthday cards! Hope you will enjoy them and hope you enjoy my blog….please make sure that you subscribe to it so you do not miss a post! I love creating cards….but more importantly to me – I love inspiring YOU!

I just love the layers and depth of this card…have fun "painting away" as we all have an "Inner Picasso!" Onto the week of "love in the air"
