A Birthday Party for Vicki!

Hi all! Surprised to see me on Wednesday? Well, it's a special day today because my friend, Lesley, is hosting a linky birthday party on her blog for Vicki Burdick! She's gathered us together around the virtual birthday cake--or the stamping table as it were--to wish Vicki a very happy birthday!  Head on over to Lesley's blog and check out the fun!

I've never met Vicki in person but we've worked together when she rocked her Guest Designer gig on the Paper Players Design Team.  As a long-time follower of her blog, It's a Stamp Thing, I was thrilled to work with this talented and friendly artist.   Vicki is kind, caring and incredible creative so when Lesley extended the invitation for Vicki's linky party, I said you 'betcha!  So here's to you, Vicki, wishing you the happiest of birthdays and a wonderful year ahead!

And in case you're wondering about the card, there's a complete supply list at the bottom.  

The background paper is the fabulous Naturals Composition Specialty paper that's been sponged with White craft ink.  Each sheet features a different embossed pattern.  The sponging covers the naturals paper but leaves the glossy embossed areas giving the whole thing a lovely texture AND shine.  Shine on, Vicki!
