Mini Thanks A Million...

I used Scallop Notes in Baja Breeze by Stampin' UP for this card.  The cards already have the scalloped edge on them.  I used an old Magenta stamp for the scrolly gate.  The label is a QuicKutz die Square (KS-0946)  The Thanks A Million are rubons by Basic Grey.  Simple & Elegant!

Paper Ribbon

Today's inspiration started with this pack of paper ribbon by K&Company.  I know that I have had it for over a year & have never used it.  It is really quite pretty! 

Can you tell that I am ready for Spring?  I cut my card base out of Bazzill Lime green paper & I used the Basic Grey (Sultry Collection) floral patterned paper.  The Fleur Shoppe stamp is by AMuse Art Stamps.   I added a row of the paper ribbon along the bottom edge of the patterned paper - it was a nice touch, don't you think??

Inspiration...

I was inspired to use this paper pad by Basic Grey (Sultry collection) by my friend, Doreen.  She used it on her Valentine Cards this year.  I have a "thing" for paper pads.  I like to collect them, label them & put them in a cute basket.  It is a good idea to get them out & actually use them!! I loved the Colorbox Dark Brown Chalk ink that Doreen used on her card so that I what I used.  The cupcake stand stamp is from Impress Rubber Stamps & the solid 3 tier cake is from Savvy Stamps.  I added a little bit of Stickles glitter (Cotton Candy) to frost the cupcakes & the cake!
