Birthday Girl!

Hi everyone! Happy Tuesday!!

Here is my card for this past Sunday's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge, SSSC54! I never seem to do these sketches on Sundays...:)

For my card, I used this super adorable little gal, My Balloon (which I think may be sold out...I was trying to link it but I don't see it!), from My Favorite Things! I indulged in quite a few of these little sweeties at CHA...and I got to meet Kim, the MFT Lady too! She is SUPER sweet...I was so excited to meet her!

I stamped My Balloon in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Choice Snow White and colored her with Copic Markers. I paper pieced her dress with the same paper I used on my card, Pretty Please from My Minds Eye (told you this was my new obsession!!!).

I sewed each layer with my sewing machine and added the border with my Apron Lace Punch. I added four white brads, one to each corner, and some Whisper White Organdy Ribbon. The little cutie was cut out with Class Circle Nestabilities and I lightly sponged the edges with Memento Canteloupe.

Thanks SO much for stopping by! Sneak peeks for the latest Taylored Expressions release begin tomorrow!!!

Recipe:
Stamps: My Balloon by My Favorite Things
Paper: Choice Snow White, Rose Light (Prism), Iced teal (Prism) and Pretty Please by My Minds Eye
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black & Memento Canteloupe
Accessories: Circle Nestabilities, Copic Markers, White Brads, Whisper White Organdy Ribbon, Sewing Machine, Apron Lace Punch and Foam Tape
