What a cute and adorable site!! When I first looked, I thought, "This is too cutesy for me." But then I remembered... My Niece, my sweet, sweet niece, Gianna called me the other day and asked me for some stamps. I send my mother cards often, birthdays, holidays, or "just cause." My mother and I were on the phone talking about my cards and my niece was sitting with her. She wanted to speak to me. She got on the phone and said, "Auntie Jenna, I want to make cards like you do!" I said, "Do you want Auntie to send you some stamps and paper?" I could tell her face LIT up, just by her response! "YES, YES Auntie Jenna!! I want to make cards with grandma!! Thank you, thank you!" It just about brings tears to my eyes! My sweet little Gianna wants to be a stamper like her auntie!!
I found this, "Foto Friends Ballet," frame and thought it looked like something Gianna would have in her room! Here it is:
So, this card is going in that box of goodies that I'm going to send to her!
About my card:
There are no stamps used on this card! I took some Blushing Bride that was sitting on my desk from a card a made for the, "Free For All," challenge this morning and I punched out a scallop circle and cut parts of it to make a "skirt." Then I drew a "top" so I could trace it onto the Concord Crush. Ran them both through my Big Kick and added some pearls... A LOT of PEARLS!!
Hope you like my SIMPLE SIMPLE card!!
Good Night all!!**

So lovely and sweet, Jenna, you've got such attention to detail with the embossed flower and pearl in the middle of the bodice, the tiny butterfly and and that darling pearly border across the bottom!
