Happy Birthday

I needed to make a birthday card for my best friend. I came across these two challenges and thought this was a great starting point for me. The first challenge is from The Paper Players (sketch challenge) and the second is Birthday Sundaes (color challenge...purple, green, white and black).

Hope you like my card...


Her birthday is tomorrow, so I better get it in the mail...lol.

Finished Card: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Materials:
Cardstock: White, Green, Two Shades of Purple and Two Patterned Papers
Sizzix Tim Holtz Alterations Bigz Die Tattered Florals
Inkadinkado Clear Stamps Thinking of You, All Occasions
Thin Green Ribbon
Queen and Co Pearls Grass Green Two Large
Black Pigment Ink
Mounting Tape

Have a great rest of the week. Hopefully you will see me soon with a new project. My work schedule never did get any easier and you would think by now (since May) that I would be use to it. However, 5 am comes way too early. I always seem so tired when I get home.

Keep checking back and I would love if you became a follower. Also leave a comment...It's always great to read what you have to say....

Thanks...
imagine what you could do...
