dreams come true

today i am showing a birthday card i made for my friends daughter (last year for being a teenager then nicki!) ~used the wonderful sketch over on INSPIRATIONAL CARD SKETCHES, followed the challenges on A SPOONFULL OF SUGAR ~"hearts" and PAPERTAKE WEEKLY "my favourite things" ~well just love these lady stamps, and kelly panacci paper and love using pink on my cards, nestabilities and quickutz, and ofcause glitter!! yes love girly!! also used this fab magnolia wording (been wanting to use this stamp since i got it)

hope you are having a great weekend ~my children only have one week left at school (full of fun activities) ~ lewis was in his classroom assembly on friday ~gosh how swweet are those 4/5 year olds singing??? ~lewis was a plum!! (in the hungry caterpillar story) ~just too sweet!!
well the sun is out today ~unlike all the rain yesterday~ mind you the garden looks so green.... and very over grown!!

Love your girly card! That image is terrific and I love how you showcased it!

Yes, the little ones singing is such a joy. Even when my children got older, I would stay to see the little ones sing.

Oh that lady stamp is something special, isn't she? A really beautiful card Vanessa. I love the papers.
Glad I'm not the only one having blogger problems (but I've sorted mine out - I uninstalled Internet Explorer 8 and I seem to be working fine again now).

Hi Vanessa, hope you're well & your computer problems are better. I moved to Firefox and haven't had a problem except when Mr. Blogger is making changes and updating blogland!!
Love this card - it's perfect!!! Fabulous colours and papers. That image is sensational and I love how you've coloured and glittered her.
