Happy Birthday Christi!!!

Hi everyone!! Happy Sunday! Happy Mother's Day and....HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRISTI!!!

Welcome to the Prettie Birthday Blog Hop for our Prettie Gal, Christi Thorsen!!! Today is her birthday and we are all hopping to send her Birthday wishes!! The hop started over at Christie's blog, so be sure to start over there!!!

I am bringing flowers, er flower (giggle!) to the party today!! For my card, I used Giving Thanks Sophia, the newest Stamp Of The Month from Paper Pretties! Isn't she a doll? She actually looks JUST LIKE my niece, so that is all I see when I use her!!! I stamped Sophia in Memento Tuxedo Black onto PTI White and colored her with Copic Markers. I paper pieced her dress with the same Bella Rose DSP I used in the background! I know Christi likes blues and chocolates, so I went with a Baja Breeze, White and Chocolate Chip combo for her!!

Sophia is framed in Circle Nesties, and I used my awesome Fleur De Lis Punch from EK Success to create the borders (thanks Jacks!!). The sentiment is from Bugs and Fishes, and I punched it with my Word Window Punch and adhered it under my double ribbon, which is White Satin Ribbon and Valet Ribbon Orignals.

The next stop on our Prettie Birthday Hop is over at the uber-talented, super sweet and law enforcing Jackie Pedro's blog!!! Make sure you head on over and follow the hop to the end to wish Christi some special Birthday Wishes!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Happy Birthday Christi and Happy Mother's Day to all you moms out there!!!

Ooooh I love this new Sophia! Can't wait to get her to play with! Paper piecing her dress to match your background paper was inspired, Jodi. And I LOVE the fleur-de-lis borders. ACtually, I love everything you do.
