STAMPS: Monogram "B" (Stampin' Up!), Paisley BG (SonLight Impressions). CS: Certainly Celery, Whisper White, Bravo Burgundy, Pale Plum. INK: Certainly Celery, Bravo Burgundy. ACCESSORIES: Prima Flowers, Dimensionals, Sponge Dauber, Celery Brads.
I got the inspiration to cover a letter w/ Prima Flowers from a Scrapbooking magazine I picked up over the holidays. It was a little time consuming to glue on all the flowers (and yes I was covered in glue by the time I finished!) but I had fun doing it!
I stamped the Monogram B stamp onto Certainly Celery CS, cut it out and then matted it w/ Whisper White CS. I then glued on all those Primas using Mono Multi glue (that stuff ROCKS - a tiny little bit goes a LONG way!!).
I kept the rest of the card super simple as the B packs a pretty big punch all on it's own! I was going to include a tag w/ a "Happy Birthday" sentiment but instead I'll stamp Happy Birthday on the inside.
I *just* got this Paisley BG stamp in the mail this afternoon and HAD to use it for this card -I've been wanting this stamp for a LONG time and it's finally here!! After stamping it (and sponging the edges of the CS), I matted it w/ Pale Plum, adhered that to the card, then added the brads and adhered the "B" w/ dimensionals and that's it!

On a side note - several ppl have been asking how Veronica's been doing (I posted about her getting croup here) which is so sweet of y'all! She doing a LOT better - we've had a couple of rough nights of her up coughing and crying, and she was complaining that her stomach hurt (no wonder w/ all the coughing - poor kid). She ended up throwing up yesterday but we think that helped as she threw up a lot of the phlegm and whatnot that was making her so sick. So she's getting better!
But now Josie is getting sick (again!), she's got a slight fever and is coughing too - so I'm keeping a close eye on her and *praying* it doesn't get worse!
I hope everyone had a good Christmas! We did pretty well even w/ the girls not feeling well. We didn't get a lot of pictures (they never stay still long enough!) but they were all film ones so I have nothing to share on here! Sorry!!
I DID get the Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 program from my Dad *happy dance* - so now I just need to get it on the computer and learn how to use it!
I got a few other fun goodies too but I'll post about them later!
