Princess Birthday CBC80

SNOW SNOW SNOW!!! What a storm! This winter storm traveling across the country has finally made it to Buffalo. No school today due to the wind mostly. We really don't have that much as far as snow, but the wind is brutal. I guess there was even a double decker bus that blew over on one of the highways this morning. I guess there was 12 people on board, and some were taken to a local hospital, while others were treated at the scene. Scary!!!! Well the winds have died down for now, and the snow is coming and going, so we are staying warm inside today.

I figured since my DH was home from work for the day I would take some time to myself and stamp. I needed a birthday card for my Goddaughter, so I decided to use the Creative Belli Challenge to inspire me to make this one. The challenge this week is flourishes. I will admit...it took me some time to think what to do for this one. I looked through my chipboard stash, rub-ons, and papers for this one. I ended up with this card...

I used a SU set for this one. I stamped the crown and embossed it in gold. I colored it in with twinkling H2Os for some more sparkle. I used the flourish from the same stamp set for the background paper. I stamped it in 2 different shades of purple, and stamped the "Princess" sentiment in pink over that. I added some pink ribbon, and some pink buttons in the corner for some added embellishments. I thought the little squiggle buttons looked like a flourish also, so I added them on.

Well that is all for today. Stay warm, and I hope you and your family aren't getting hit too hard from this big country wide storm.
