A Girly Card

I have to say that I love this card!  Usually, I'm my own worst critic, but I was real pleased how this one turned out.  I made it for my niece's birthday who turned 24 today. 

How I did it:
Forever Young cartridge:  Girl cut at 5-1/4" inches w/layer and the Mirror cut at 3-3/4" w/layer
Paper:  DCWV Hippie Chic matstock.  Love the patterns!  Inside paper and bright green cardstock are from my scraps.
Punch:  Fiskars corner punch (don't know the name)
Stamps:  From the $1.00 bin at Michael's on the front; sentiment inside is a wooden stamp from Inkadinkadoo.

Thanks for stopping by!

  3. That whole matstack reminds me of the 70's--love it! Now I need Groovy Times cart to go along with it. That was my era; I was 17 in 1973!--Pat

  8. This so cute! I love the pattern paper. Thanks for leaving such a nice comment on my blog. The paper I used for the envelopes was just plain printer paper. Hope that helps. :)
