Wasn't she cute? This was back in 2006 and now she's so big!
I used my Martha Stewart Fancy Lace Punch for the bottom border. The stars are cut from Plantin Schoolbook and since my sewing machine is not working again, I just used the needle to stitch holes in the stars!
The striped ribbon is from Stampin' Up! I added a gorgeous Crinkle Ribbon Bow with some Vintage Cherry Bakers Twine both from My Craft Spot! The button was a last minute addition to fit into the Whimsical Wednesday Challenge!
I used my Gypsy to weld Country Life font together to form the title then outlined and popped it up! The "You make me smile" stamp is from My Craft Spot Sweet Sentiments Set #1.
The banner is also cut from Country Life and tied together with Vintage Cherry Bakers Twine.
