Girly Girl

Most of the names (people) in my Date Book can tell you I'm usually a little behind in getting birthday cards out.  Since I had the house to myself for a few hours last night I decided to knock out the January birthdays and start the year "on time."  Here is the first card I made.....it's for my niece, Olivia.
Supplies:
  • teal/white/black card stock
  • Misc. paper scraps
  • dress/shoes die cut (Sizzix)
  • Swiss Dots embossing folder
  • Misc. "Got Flowers"
  • Homemade dew drops that my friend made me using this method (she used pearlized nail polish to finish them off)
  • Sizzix Alpha Bubbles set
  • Martha Stewart Lace punch (inside on edges)
For a friend's daughter -- a paper purse (with some $$ inside!).
Supplies:
  • Blue/black cardstock
  • Martha Stewart Lace punch
  • Swiss dots embossing folder
  • Black/Teal "Got Flowers"
  • Small flower brad
  • Homemade dew drops  (colored with metallic Bic markers)
  • Teal/Black ribbon
  • Pattern from here

I just love those dresses! I'll have to try a similar card sometime. The purse is lovely, too. I don't always think to emboss, but I love it when you do!
