Happy Monday :)
I made this card for the newest CAS-ual Fridays challenge. They're challenging us to bring on the bling :)
So wanna know why my favorite color is now pink?
'Cause I found this wrapped in my craftroom on Friday night!!!! My birthday is coming up and my hubby decided to give me my gift a little early… what a good man! Sorry for the quality of pic - I took it with my phone. I love my new toy - I use it all the time. For anyone interested, I'd be glad to plug the iPad and enable you if needed *wink*
So I decided to go pink with my card. I never used to be a pink gal, but it has really grown on me over the years. Especially since I was introduced to raspberry fizz. Oh yeah.
I stamped dot spot onto sweet blush in raspberry fizz ink. Then I added a few sparkly brads to the centers. See the little white dots? I bought enamel accents a while back…
… and decided to give them a try. I like the way they look against the sweet blush cardstock.
I also made the celebrate card for another reason:) My birthday and blogiversary are right around the same time, so in honor of those occasions, I'll be offering up some blog candy on the ol' blogo soon. Check back in a few days :)
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy early birthday!! Okay, this is so funny becaue I just bought an iPad on Friday, but won't get it for about 3 weeks. I have been debating about which cover to get AND have been on Etsy looking for a cute fabric cover for when it's in my purse :) Please let me know how you like the pink cover...I'm thinking I might get a little sturdier one that will really prop it up...but I would like your opinion!! EEK!! how exciting!! And I love pink too :) And that glittery brad...just yummy :)

Pink definitely agrees with you! Every time I see Dot Spot I ask myself why I haven't bought it yet (and then I remember my empty bank account LOL!). LOVE the bling in the center and the enamel accents. Happy (early) birthday!
