Birthday doilies

 
Yeah!!  A four-day weekend - I got to "play" today.

My Mom's birthday (and a few other special women) is coming up.  This will be for her.  My mom and I share the same birthday!!  I was a very special gift for her - at least so she says.  :) 

I used the Retro Sketch Challenge and colors from The Play Date Cafe challenge .  The peachy and aqua colors are my mom's favorites.  In fact I just picked up a sweater and scarf set for her birthday, with these colors.  How great is that the card will coordinate!! 
 
I'll also put this into the 52 - Card Pick Up challenge as my card-making time is limited.
 
supplies:
  • cardstock: PTI
  • stamps: My Mind's Eye
  • other: scallop die: PTI; button: Stampin Up, lace: JoAnn's; white embossing powder; ink: Stampin Up
Thanks for looking!
