In the pink


Here's a Birthday card for a change from all those Christmas cards. I do love these Simply Sassy girls and they are great for trying out different hair colours. The papers are MME Blush which I bought on holiday in the US. I have distressed all the edges and inked with DI Antique Linen. I've used a MS flower border die, some organza ribbon I bought last year at Ally Pally,a button with baker's twine, and flowers mostly from Wild Orchid. Not sure where the lilies came from as they have been in my stash for a long time.
