Today's Bellarific Friday challenge is to use March's birthstone color, aquamarine in your creation. Well, having a March birthday I have always known that aquamarine represents March and I have always loved that my month has such a pretty birthstone, so I just HAD to make time to create a card for the challenge.
A few weeks ago I was the lucky winner of a gift certificate to the Stamping Bella store and with my winnings I picked up some new (to me!) Mavis stamps, 'cause she's just so stinkin' cute! So I used Mavis for my card today along with some new My Mind's Eye Stella & Rose papers from the Gertie 6x6 paper pad.
Originally I just wanted some touches of pink in my design, but the pink cardstock for the background put it a little over the edge in the pink department, I guess! LOL This card also qualifies for Jeanie's "That's Krafty Thursday" challenge this week too, to use Kraft cardstock in your creation. So, I used Kraft for my card base and also for the tab under the ribbon.
