Millie by Karen Day

Hello Ai fans!

I have a monochromatic card for you today, featuring the exuberant Millie (Sku#M1932).  When I use Millie on a card, I love to pair her up with the fun sentiment: Caffeinated (Sku#G4144).  I have more than a few girlfriends for whom this card would be perfect!

I've used a chevron striped ribbon, paper flower and a few navy rhinestones, along with a punched border.  I double matted Millie, and have popped her up on pop dots.

Happy stamping everyone!
