Celebrate

Yippee!!!! It's Friday! It's been another long week at work, and my craftroom has been lonely. But today, alas, I got off from work early and spent a little time getting crafty. I whipped up this little birthday card for this week's  ColourQ challenge. I was inpired by Kasia's card.





I did some masking for the first time ever! Can you believe it?! Please do not look too closely at the details. Masking takes away my usual tricks to stamp straight lines. Oh well. I am still pleased with the way it turned out. 

My weekend will be just as busy as this past week, but I hope to post a scrapbook layout I have been trying to work on very soon. Thanks for stopping by!
