Happy Birthday Shannon

I made this card for a girl I work with named Shannon. She, my friend Jen, and me are known in the area as "the shoe girls". I guess that's a compliment, but honestly, I had no idea others really notice the shoes we wear. Funny thing about this girl, I had never met her. I have seen her various shoes and some I really like. Once I knew who she was, I happened to run into her in the cafeteria later that day and introduced myself. When I looked her profile up to show Jen, I noticed that it was her birthday today so wanted to make her a card. I used a sketch off Pinterest for this card. I really like this card and may use the sketch again soon. I did move the pennants up a little and attach them to the main piece instead of having them come off the pennant like they were in the sketch.

 
Supplies: Recollections, The Paper Studio, Neenah, Cuttlebug, Cuttlebug embossing folder, SU garden greetings, bling, Studio G, Mark's Finest Papers, flower punch, paper piecing.

      Thanks Darcy. Yes. Jackson is the golden and Jake is the yellow lab (all white...odd I know). They are my babies and they think they are humans. This year, I have a new picture idea up my sleeve and just have to find the proper spot for the pictures.
