Happy Birthday Olivia!

     Today my precious granddaughter, Olivia, turned 4. I was blessed by being able to spend the day with her. Her princess birthday party was last Saturday. You can click here to see the decorations I made for her party.

    This is the pocket card I made her.

The finished size of the card is 4.5 by 8.25. 

I began with a piece of PTI Pattern Paper; cut and scored as seen below

 I then adhered a piece of Royal Velvet on the front of the pocket.

 I added the striped pattern paper and stamped image on the Mat Stack 4.

The image is a wood mount rubber stamp by Great Impressions. I dazzled the shoes by using Lilac Glitter Ritz.

The inside sentiment is a compilation of 3 stamps: Great Impressions, Heart to Heart #2,Make a Wish Additions

   Here's a close up of the little wand to which I added some ribbon.

  Thanks for stopping by to take a peek.

MIM Pocket Card with Edger Die

I just love the MIM technique that Nicole featured on her website this week.  I immediately knew I wanted to use  the #1 edgers die as well as Botanical Silhouettes.  Just had to figure out the color combination.  A couple of releases ago, Nicole had featured Sweet Blush with  Pure Poppy cardstock using Berry Sorbet ink.  I had loved the combination so much I wrote it down.

This is the card I made.  You can't see it, but I used the Linen Impression Plate on the red cardstock to add some texture.

 This is what the inside of the pocket card looks like.

I wanted something dainty on top of the ribbon, so I used embroidery floss that matched the Red Poppy & Sweet Blush to make a small bow.  I fussy cut the medium size poppy to stick ontop of the bow.



Here they are together.



Thanks for looking.  I willupdate later with supply list.
