Happy Birthday Tomika

Ok, so this is the card that my niece is getting. This one feels a bit more age appropriate for a young and sassy girl. Hey, has anyone noticed that I'm a bit obsessed with my Nestabilities? I sit here & wonder what I did before I could add a scalloped trim to my images. I currently only have the rectangle ones, but I plan on getting the other shapes eventually. Then there will be no stopping me. I have become a scalloping fool. I think eventually I will be *gasp!* purging my supply of punches. Not all of them of course, but all the great big circles & scallop circles and whatnot. I'm too lazy to turn around & see what all I have, but there's a lot. So, Dana, don't go out & buy a bunch of them cuz we're gonna work something out. This is funny. When I first started to see Nestabilities, I thought, how lame. That's so much work. With my punch, all I have to do is whip out the punch & punch out what I need. But to be honest, the Nestabilities aren't that much work. It's not like my Cuttlebug is put away, in another room, in a cabinet on the top shelf. It's under my desk. My folders are in my cabinet a foot away from my desk. I keep the actual Nestabilities in CD cases right with all my stamps in the same cabinet. Easy peasy. I have to admit that I have come over to the dark side. I love my Nestabilties.

Stamps: Giftabella with Hat (Stamping Bella), Pretty Princess (SU!), Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black (Tsukineko), Paper: Papertrey white, Cool Caribbean & Basic Black (SU!), Accessories: Primas, Baubles (Stamping Bella), Copics, Stickles, Nestabilities (duh)

Really cool card, you scalloping fool, you. I like how the black looks like a huge shadow, and this is so Tomika! It's amazing how you get the cards to actually match the people you make them for.
