Happy Birthday Sarah!

Hi y'all!  Happy Saturday!  Today is Sarah Bigelow's (one of my awesome Mojo Makers) birthday and she's celebrating in style with a little blog hop and sketch challenge.  Be sure to check out Sarah's blog for all the details, since there are Verve prizes to be won.  The full blog hop list is below - leave a shout out as you hop along for a chance to win.  Then print out the sketch, give it a go and link your creation up to Sarah's blog by April 2 for another chance to win!


For my card, I pulled out some Roadshow paper from my stash. The sentiment and flourishes are from the Happy Days set, and I used the Labels 7 Nestabilities as a stencil as I stamped. The little rosette is made using the Tim Holtz mini rosettes die, then I added a round adhesive circle and shook a little German glass glitter over it for the center, then added some basic gray taffeta ribbon. A few little pearl clusters and some liquid pearls and I was done!

Okay, here's the hop list...  happy hopping!
