And oh goodness, did I use pink AGAIN! Apparently my use of pink is a good thing. My sweet cousin got to come to my card making class last weekend, and her quote was, "I'm so glad you're starting to use pink." Of course that's because she has too little girls. All this to say I've decided I do like pink, just not a lot of it.
For Kelley's card I wanted to break out a special envelope. The Paper Source has these awesome pointed flap envelopes. They are huge. I wanted to decorate the outside for this card just to add a little something extra!
Hopefully she'll like them.

Happy Birthday to your friend Kelly! The card is beautiful and so is the envelope. I want to know how to make this awesome ribbon flowers. I hope you will show us.
I think she will love it! :) And you for making her such a gorgeous card and thinking of her on her birthday! :) Thank you! :)
I love that canvas paper - don't use it near enough as I should considering it's $2.50 a sheet!! And the stitching is the perfect touch to go with the canvas. I would watch the tutorial - but if it ain't easy, I won't do it - LOL But I do like checking things out like that...generates ideas ;)
Stunning cards and I am sure your friend will love them. I can't wait for the tutorial on the ribbon flowers they are so beautiful.

And I think it's so great that you girls are best friends in real-life. I love my girlfriends, BUT unfortunately most of them are not even remotely into crafts and stamping. LoL. That's why I love the "blogging world" so much, since I get to meet others who share the same hobby.
Btw, LOVE the ribbon!
You should definitely do a video on that technique! :)

How could she not adore it Courtney?? That ribbon treatment is fantastic. I don't know if I'd take my time to make it but it would be a lovely thing to put in my data bank of crafty things to try.
Love all the dots. Is that fabric paper? And I think it's wonderful that you took the time to decorate the envelope too.

What a lovely card for the lovely Kelley! When I saw the ribbon I realized I knew how to make it too! BTW I will post soon the flower pin I made for my daugther's jacket, I learnt the yo-yo from you but did something different. Hopefully soon I want to take a pic of her in the jacket. Hope your having a great week!

Simply stunning, and I think that she will adore it. I would love to see a video tutorial, if you are willing to put one out. Just listening to you is so much fun, it brings back a lot of memories from my high school when I was in the south (not that I'm that old, but they are still memories...)
I'm sure she'll love this- it's so pretty! And you do seem to be getting comfy with pink! :)
I'll be looking forward to the tutorial- but not sure it won't be beyond my skills!! Ha!
Great card and envelope! I just love the envelope :>)
