Hello Friends, I am going to make this short and sweet as I have a Baseball game that I have to watch here in a few minutes! I had such a great time making this card for our challenge over at Seize the Birthday. The topping this time around is to use STENCILS on your card and or project. This stencil is from The Crafters Workshop and I think I have only used it twice at this point. (Not sure why) I mixed and matched the sentiments from many different companies, however the bold die is from Verve. I decided to cut out the circles to give the card some added dimension. My only regret is, I think instead of outlining the circles with a black pen, I should have mounted them on black paper instead. Well, there is always next time. The accent little pearls were carefully placed…maybe to cover up a mistake or three! LOL
I sure hope you head on over to Seize the Birthday and check out my fabulous teams work along with our guest designer Sherrie! You will be in for a treat!
BTW……Go Cubbies! Of course when this goes live, I may or may not be celebrating! Fingers crossed! Nanc’

I love the inking, Nancy, and cutting the circles added that extra something special to your card.
