Surf's up

I've recently bought a few extra magnolia stamps on e-bay and this is one of them. I fiddled around several times today trying to find bits to put on the card (from my stash that has been hiding in the cupboard), the greeting was the hardest thing for me to decide on. I tried several different punched shapes but nothing worked so finally decided on cutting one by hand and using this large happy birthday stamp. I think it has turned out okay. I've used a pale yellow for the base card and again the scan is picking it up as white, it's nearly the same colour as the paper I used which shows up as yellow, strange!!! I've tried auto correct but that doesn't help, will have to learn how to use my new camera (xmas present) and also how to upload to the computer. LOL, I am just not very computer savvy.
Thanks for looking,
Sandy
