Hooray For Surprises

Today's card is from back in January from the Stampin' Sisters Demo Day.  I love the dainty pastel colors used in this card.  If you have a girl that likes pinks and purples, then this is the card for you.

We started with a base of Basic White Thick cardstock.  After stamping the sentiment with Memento Black ink on the upper right-hand corner of the Fresh Freesia cardstock it was adhered to the card base.  The Lighter Than Air Designer Series Paper was adhered to the Lemon Lolly cardstock and wrapped with Lemon Lolly Baker's Twine.  A circle was die cut from Lemon Lolly with the Stylish Shapes Dies.  A 2 3/8" circle was punched from Basic White cardstock.  The birthday cake was stamped using Fresh Freesia ink.  The candle was stamped off using Fresh Freesia and the flame was stamped using Lemon Lolly.  Add some Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots and pop up the circles with Stampin' Dimensionals and you are done.

Yesterday was a great day.  I started the day with a doctor's appointment that went quite well.  They told me I could actually walk through a small grocery store.  They were hoping it would stimulate my appetite and it did.  I worked on some stamping in the afternoon and joined Zoom book club last night.  I also managed to stay awake all day.  Let's hope today is as good.

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Happy Stamping!!
