Another Happy Birthday

Yea!!! I'm posting something else I've made. I feel as though they are few and far between but I'm making time for things. I actually had this birthday card done for over a week but couldn't post it because it was for my mom and she hadn't received it yet.

I'm trying to work on the presentation of my cards so I used some hints from some other blogs that I have seen. The base of this card is half of a sheet of the Bazzill black scalloped paper with a square of Sassafras black dotted paper on top. I used Heidi Swapp black chipboard letters for "happy" and stamped "birthday" with half of the Heidi Swapp "Happy Birthday" stamp. I distressed the edges of the Sassafras paper with Brick Red distressing ink. I put red rhinestones in each corner and added a cute ribbon and used a button that I bought from Hancock Fabrics. I just bought a shank remover and love it! It took the shank off of the back of the button perfectly so it laid down flat...either that or it was beginner's luck!
