Oh it's Friday!! Yippiee!!! The kids have been invited to a birthday party tonight at the local roller rink, and this card is for the birthday girl turning six.
The birthday girl's mom is what I call a 'super mom' - she works outside the home, works out every day and has an incredible figure, Cub Scout mom, Daisy/now Brownie troop mom, verbally articulate, organized, and is a good friend to others - she's beautiful - both outside, and inside too.
And, she periodically hosts THE most fun ladies' night at her home!
One mom of a guest contacted everyone invited and took up a collection for the little birthday girl's gift. I volunteered to make the group card - this one - and guess what - enough was collected to get this little birthday girl a Wii!! OMGoodness!!
So I opted to use a Hero Arts 'seize the cupcake' stamp, and added in with marker '...and the remote!' :-D

Cupcake was stamped twice - rosette icing was colored with Copic markers, cut out, then mounted with foam dots. Square scallop mat is a Nestabilities die. Sentiment (Rosie's Roadshow) has a scalloped edge to mimic the scalloped square.
This is a Valerie Stangle layout! :-)
The brush tip of a Copic Sketch marker can be used as a calligraphy marker! I outlined Hailey's name with a yellow Copic Spica marker and added black hearts using the brush tip of a black marker. Really liked how this special envelope turned out!
Thank you for stopping by and best wishes for a wonderful weekend!
