Best Buddies~~~~



I created this card for my youngest granddaughter Michela 3rd birthday,a few weeks ago....
There is an element of surprise in this card... wanna know what it is?? ;o)
Most of my friends know that I truly believe in recycling ..and try to do my part whenever I can...
even on my cards,such as this one...
The purplish/magenta background 'designer paper' is none other than a thin cardboard that held
some funky princesses'  'jewels' at my GDs' tea party...
at first I toss it in the recycle bin at my daughterinlaw's place and then  reTHUNK the whole idea and retrieved many of those c/boards back! LOL

I love the strong magenta color and thought it would work well
on a girly-girl card...
This sweet image I saw it for the first time last year from one of my stamping friends' card gallery on SCS, and it was love at first sight for me...lol ...Admitedly I fall in love often with many must have stamps and images...but this one is incredibly adorable.
It is aptly called 'Being Together' by Gillian Roberts @Stampavie


  Here's a close up of the colored image (I used colored chalks and SU markers) and a lil picture of my sweetMichela (or Kella as we call her often,amongst many other terms of endearments..)

 In here she looks rather serious but I assure you that she is  one of the funniest goofball lil missy evah! lol


Hope you enjoyed it and thanks for the visit! Please come back again soon...:o) * blessings*
