Today the lovely Marie is holding a surprise Birthday linky party for the very talented and creative crafter Shirley's Birthday. Her blog Shirley-bee's Stamping Stuff is full of inspiration and if you are not already aware of her inky delights I urge you to grab a coffee and have a browse around her blog now!
Very recently Shirley has designed her own stamps called The Bee's Knees that you can order through STAMPlorations. I love her new designs and am very lucky that Marie stamped this city girl for me to make a special card for Shirley's Birthday (these stamps were not on release when I made this card but Marie is part of the DT at STAMPlorations and was very kind to send me this one)
I wanted to stay CAS with my card and attempted to colour the city girl with a funky pink coat. I am sorry Shirley that the colouring is not so good but as you know it is not my 'go to' technique!! However I love this fabulous stamp and thought this sentiment was just such a perfect match.
Have a great day Shirley and I hope you enjoy your party!
If you want to make Shirley a card just link up your card here before the 9th November
I will enter this into the 'Anything Goes' challenge at STAMPlorations
Love this card for Shirley!
