There's not much to say about this card as I've kept it very clean. This little cutie is from A Day for Daisies and I colored her up using Promarkers. I added glossy accent to the balloons and stamped a very simple birthday greeting.The DP is a favorite - it's been in my stash for more than a year! For some reason my favorite papers seem to be left untouched for a long time, like I'm waiting for the perfect occasion to arise to use it. But if I leave it for too long, then my taste might have changed and that would be a waste... I mounted the DP onto red paper, and the A2 card base is made using white cardstock.
Tomorrow is a special day in Norway. Every year we celebrate that we got our own Constitution on May 17th, 1814, and that makes tomorrow its 200th anniversary! We' will walk to Oslo's city center, it's a 15 minute walk, and look at all the children, and grownups, walking the parade and playing music. And we'll drink champagne for breakfast - it's a tradition for many (those who're old enough and don't have to drive) for this particular date.
I'd also like to pass on my birthday wishes to Sandie over at Ink - Happy Birthday, Sandie!

An adorable image Pia and wonderful colours. The paper is perfect behind and you are right we keep things in our stash because we love them but it is great to share them with others when we do use them. Wonderfully coloured and perfect for our challenge at Come and Get It. Hope you are well. Meg

This is a sweet card and I can see why you have hoarded that paper...I do the same!!!
So pretty. I have the same problem with favourite papers... they end up untouched and often forgotten!
This is a great occasion to use your fave papers and you made a lovely card with it.
