Stitched up Pink and Pumpkin

Today we're celebrating my sweet friend Dana's birthday! Happy Birthday Dana!!!

And since I have Stamping Bella to thank for introducing me to Karen who introduced me to Dana, of course, its a Stamping Bella card to celebrate!

There are several of us today posting birthday wishes for Dana - and as pumpkin is her favorite color - you'll see that in all of our cards today.

Now, to make a card that's a little bit Dana and a little bit me, it needs some pink in there too! I did some stash diving to put together just the right mix of happy to celebrate!

You'll also see that I combined the Stamping Bella Faux or Sew challenge this week. I've got LOTS of sewing here on my card, including the circular zig-zagger on the main panel. Always a tricky move!

Don't forget to swing by Blogabella to see all the other submissions for this week, and of course, leave a comment for your chance at Bella Bucks!!

And, be sure to visit all the other girls helping to celebrate with DANA today. You'll find more cards from:
