You're Very Special

Happy New Year!!!!

I especially wanted to participate in this week's retrosketches because it is Arielle's birthday!
Her team mates hijacked the site and asked everyone to send her a birthday card! I am a big admirer, so I wanted to make a card for the occasion. 


Happy Birthday, Arielle!!!!!



The sentiment is from a brand new stamp set that I just received in the mail this week from Simon Says Stamps January Card Kit. It is called Very Special (Simon Says), so I thought it was perfect for this occasion.


And the pretty papers are also from this card kit. They are from the Lily B 6x6 Persnickity paper pad.
I finished with some Licorice twine and a green button.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Oh my word, I LOVE the green on here. Green scares me and to see someone use it and make it look GOOD makes me want to pull out everything green and just make something. What a great card.
