More Candles...BIGGER CAKE! ...by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing one of the new wood mount stamps from Art Impressions available at A.C. Moore.  I LOVE this new image!  She's so perfect for birthday cards!  I made this one for my daughter's dance teacher.  She just turned 40 and the girls threw a little party for her before dance the other night.  Isn't she so much fun?!

Ballerina Eunice Birthday card by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!!

Today I'm sharing one of my favorite stamps.  She's called Ballerina Eunice.



On the inside I used FABULOUS YOU.


I also made a similar version in green.


Eunice was one of the first Ai stamps that I ever bought and I
still love her as much today as I did back then.
