Celebrate!!

Good afternoon!! It's another bright, sunny day in the studio.  I finished some commissioned cards yesterday so today I got to play.  Today's card is for the current Embellish colour challenge.  I kind of knew what I wanted to do with it, but things didn't quite go as planned.  But I believe if you make a big statement with some fabulous seam binding ribbon, everything will turn out :)  The button is actually a lovely shade of PTI's summer sun, but it's so close to the watermelon/coral ribbon that they look like the same colour.  So what are you celebrating today?  I know my dear blog buddy, Michelle, is celebrating a birthday and an old high school friend is celebrating an anniversary...I'm celebrating report cards being done and  this gorgeous weather :)  Enjoy the rest of your Sunday and thanks for visiting :)

What's in it?
Stamps: Waltzing Mouse Very Vintage Labels 4; PTI Say it With Style
Ink: PTI berry sorbet and tea dye duo, SU choc chip
Paper: SU cameo coral, choc chip, more mustard, dp; PTI cream

Love how you've framed the sentiment with that nestie shape and added the little, not sure what you call them LOL!, above and below it! Lovely bow and the button is perfect! Enjoy the sunshine :D Only 16 more sleeps(if you're done on the 30th)!

Yes, a fabulous seam binding bow makes everything OK! haha (Once I wrote something like "glitter saves anything" when I posted a card that I had continued to work with and work with and... haha, you get the idea!) Seriously, though, that is a fabulous bow and I think your card is lovely!
