Magical Mimi




Hey all! How's your day going so far? I had a bit of a crappy morning (just a work thing...pfffth!), but the sun is shining and I hope that as the day goes on, it gets better. I made this card early this morning before I left for work.



The stamps are brand new from the Penny Black Touch of Whimsy Catalog (4150K Magical Mimi and 4176H Friendship). The main panel and butterfly are both up on foam tape and I added some stardust Stickles to the mushrooms, flowers, flight trails, and dragonfly wings.

Here's a pic of the inside...



Okay, so back to work I go. Have a good one!
