Well I was in my stamping room way too late last night as I am behind on making birthday cards. Although, I will say it sure was fun to stamp two nights in a row during the work week!
The cardbase is shimmery pink Stardream Chiara which is dry embossed with a CB border folder, topped with silver Currency another layer of Chiara and then pearl Currency embossed with the Manhattan Flower folder. I couldn't get the happy birthday embossed correctly despite several attempts, so I went with the best of the bunch because I must get this in the mail today!
Thank you Peggy-Sue for the embossing folder. I love it!
Hope you like it and thanks for looking!

That Manhattan ef helps to create the most elegant cards and this is no exception. The card is beautiful in pink and white and that is such a great touch to add the wonderful stick pin. Hhmmm, looks as if you are having a lot of late nights in your life. I went to bed early last night as the last two nights of "nonsense" over on my gallery wore me completely out. ;)

I am thinking I'd love to get my hands on that Manhatten flower embossing folder! I've seen some great cards using it. This one you've done is absolutely wonderful. I love the soft colors and that wonderful flower/pin/ribbon you've added. The embossing on the card base is pretty too, as are the pearls. Gorgeous card! TFS. : )

Miss M, what a beautiful card here. That flower is breath taking. Love the cb edges. Love the pearl head pin with the flower. Reminds me of my grandma who stuck hat pins in her hats. But me as a very young girl thought she was sticking them in her head! lol Love your card. You done good. TFS :0)
