Happy Birthday Mabel
Today I'm stopping by to share the card I made my grandmother to celebrate her 91st birthday. Navy blue is her favorite color and I couldn't resist making it the centerpiece for this card. Also, a little gold embellishment never hurt either.
The peonies are white heat embossed onto watercolor paper and I used my Mission Gold watercolors to add color the paper. I was real pleased with how these turned out. I found some greenery pieces from the stash and used my SSS Stitched Rectangles dies to make a white frame. The sentiment is gold embossed - on the outside and on the inside. I mixed two different sentiment stamps to make this inside sentiment. She really is fabulous and I super hope that she feels special today, her actual birthday.
I scheduled this post as I am currently in the process of hosting a dinner celebration at my house. It's getting late for my grandma, so we'll be wrapping up soon - which means she won't get a peek at her card before she opens it.
Happy Birthday, Grandma. I love you so.
