Hope your day is just ducky

Happy Birthday Jessica!!

I'm so excited to be joining a HUGE group of talented former and current TSG Trendsetters (and a few very special friends) today for a surprise Birthday Blog Hop for, Jessica Knutsen.  Jessica is my dear friend and owner of There She Goes clear stamps.  This past March, Jessica along with 7 other of my closest friends all came together to my home where I had the pleasure of hosting an EPIC girls weekend that will not soon be forgotten!!  :)

Jessica, I hope you have a fabulous birthday and a year full of love, happiness and success!!

Here is my birthday card for you, my friend!!

One of my favorite things about TSG clear stamps are the hilarious and sometimes cheeky sentiments that go along with the images.  I created my card using the Lucky Duck stamp set.  I started with a white cardstock base and designer paper from My Mind's Eye (Honey) The Sweetest Thing collection.  After using my Perfect Layers tool, I rounded the corners and did a little machine stitching.  The duck and cattail image were both stamped onto Kraft cardstock.  The duck was stamped a second time onto white cardstock, colored with Copic markers and then cut out and adhered over the stamped image on the kraft.  A bit of black and cream gingham ribbon and a button threaded with twine finish things off.

Ready to Hop?
