Princess

 The week is almost over..can you believe it!  Geesh these weeks/months are flying by.  This is my birthday month and I don't even remember getting close to age 50 now I'm even older than 50.  Yikes!  I suppose it is better than the alternative. I can't believe how much change happens after age 50.  Those wrinkles..they weren't there yesterday.  Then pop..look there's some more!  argggh


Ok, enough ranting about getting old.  How about something that celebrates being young!  This adorable card is for that little princess I'm still waiting to meet.  I created the card base using the baby onesie found on the Cricut Wrap it Up cartridge and my Gypsy.  I then cut out the onesie again using the shadow feature and ran the cuts through my Big Shot using Swiss Dots folder. The word Princess was cut out using the Cricut StoryBook cartridge. I adhered all the pieces to the base then set about decorating the little outfit. 


I gathered together some pink tulle and sewed it on to the waistline then added another bit of lace to cover the stitching.  Then I added pearls to the neckline and the waist.  Isn't it adorable?!
This card started out as a challenge, using any cartridge, to use the word Princess over at BBTB2.  ta-da!
And another challenge to use pastels over at the Die Cuttin Divas.
Thanks for stopping in,
Michelle
