Uptown Girl Birthday Card

Afternoon all

I smacked myself off the ground today, so I'm sporting big purple bruises on my chin, knee, hip and hand...not a good look :P I'll be sore tomorrow methinks...

I made this card a while ago. Only blogging it now though :) I love this Uptown Girl, she's just perfect for all kinds of cards! I love pairing her with big sentiments because she's so long and narrow that she fits in perfectly beside them :) 

Ingredients

Uptown Girl Audrey Loves Makeup

LOTV Statement big sentiment

Marianne Design numbers dies

Martha Stewart Doily Border punch

Ribbons from Ribbon Girl

LOTV papers

Liquid pearls, Stickles, silver embossing powder

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:

As You Like It - Bingo

I have ribbon on pretty much every card I make, and pink on the vast majority too; dies and punches make so much impact for relatively little effort - they really add something extra :)
