I hope your week started off well! My Monday was really great! The rumors are true and yesterday was my birthday! I turned 30 last night at 11:45. I have to say the only down side of turning the big 3-0 is that now I can't keep teasing Jason that he is married to a younger woman and that I am his trophy wife! Oh well, just 10 more years and I can do it all over again! LOL!
We actually had a really lovely dinner last night at the Cheesecake Factory and I received some chocolates from my good friend Tracy, some lovely Bath and Body Works products from Jason, and a three way phone call from my great friends Heather and Jess. Izzy even stopped to tell me, "Happy Birday to you!" a couple times! Thanks to all of you too who offered me birthday wishes!
Well, I know what you are here for today! Some more sneak peeks of the new Billy set that is being released tomorrow from Pink Cat Studio!!!! Are you jumping up and down right now! I know I am! I am so, so excited! I can hardly wait for the release! Today I want to show you another of the adorable images from Sporty Billy, Billy playing soccer!
How cute is he?!!!!!! EEEEEEKKKKK I love him!!!! There is just so much action in this image! The ball looked like it was about to come right off the image, so of course I had to add some dimension! LOL! Anywhoo, I started this card by first stamping Billy playing soccer from Sporty Billy by Pink Cat Studio on white card stock and colored him in using my copics. I stamped the soccer ball again, cut it out and attached it to a spiral cut piece of paper so it would look like it was popped off the page. Following Jen Del Muro's Sketch For You To Try, I cut out my main image with some nesties and layered on brown and orange card stock along with paper from Luxe. I stamped the sentiment from Sporty Billy on white and layered on some orange and brown card stock as well. I had to move it to the corner to make the layout fit. To complete the card, I added some orange stitched ribbon to the bottom and three orange brads to the side. I hope all the soccer players in my life like it!
Now it is time to check out the rest of the team's amazing creations! Did I not tell you how wonderful they were! They always blow me away!
