Happy Friday :-)  Another great challenge is starting up on the Crafty Catz challenge blog today.  This is an easy one-Dies and Punches.  Our wonderful sponsor this time is Digi Stamps 4 Joy.

I think I might have over filled my shaker with sequins...LOL.  Anyway, the sentiment reads, 'Birthdays are ordinary days Sprinkled with Stardust'.  I was inspired by the colors on my daughter's hoodie while doing laundry.  Love this black, gold and pink combo :-)
