Retirement Congrats!

Quick post... This was for my close friend's mom who retired in October. She is such a neat lady and I LOVE that she and her daughter (and now her grandaughter- who I love dearly and have gotten to watch her grow up) are all SO alike!! I am blessed to have them in my life for sure. This was an almost CASED card of Nichole Heady from PTI. I used Soft Stone and True Black cs and Smokey Shadow ink. CTMH flower stamp set, handcut the circle centers and used glossy accents. SU! sentiment stamp set with a CTMH flower rhinestone. I did cuttlebug the black cs too.

Enjoy!
