Hello, again! I’m back today with a birthday card for a four year old girl. Musical Memories is the name of this stamp from the Laurence Collection by Stampavie. I think it’s the sweetest image and since I make so many children’s cards I didn’t hesitate to drop it in my basket the last time I was out on one of those fun shopping trips at our local scrapbook store.
I colored with Copic markers on Flourishes Classic White cardstock. Must have sweet papers for a sweet image so I used these from the My Mind’s Eye Howdy Doody collection. I like how the rose in the dog’s mouth somewhat matches the rose in the paper. I hand cut the banner for the birthday sentiment (something retired from Inque Boutique), and added ribbons and brads to match the paper. And that about sums it up. I’m off and running with my scissors to get more cards made before the end of the month. Enjoy your day!
Stamps: Musical Memories (Stampavie), Card Wishes (retired Inque Boutique) Paper: Sage, white, My Mind’s Eye Howdy Doody designer paper Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Copic markers for coloring Accessories: Ribbon, brads, Scotch brand foam mounting tape
This is so beautiful! Such a sweet image and it matches perfectly with the sweet paper! Well done girl!

This is simply the most precious, and the sweetest card I've ever seen. The stamped image is adorable and as one of your commenters has already written - you've brought it to life. It doesn't get better than this.
