I made this card for my buddy Monica, she is the one that got me started making cards in 2002. She had just started her SU business and I went to her party just for a show of support. I ended up buying Snow Globe set, Black ink pad, White CS, and then went home to tell Steve I was making all our Christmas cards that year. I have never once regretted that show of support. Monica now lives in Washington, but we see each other whenever we are in close proximity.
I got this exellent image from Pat Smethers, (thank you very much) I used DCWV NanaÂ’s Kitchen DP which has sparkles on it for the bg, and Neenah Solar White CS and Copics to color the image, then used CE on the plates. I added the Hot Pink ribbon and a tag for Happy Birthday.
I got a call from her after she got it and she liked it a lot.
Thanks for looking.

Lol- Oh Judy, how we all got started! I remember Steve telling me that story. What a great friend you are! And I am so glad Monica gave you a kick start, how else could our paths have crossed IRL? Your card is lovely sis, and I have never seen that image used better! LMYI IRL!
