Happy Birthday



My mom's birthday was today and I gave her this card that I made earlier in the month, but I still have birthdays on the brain...so here ya go! My little guy, Ben, will celbrate his 8th birthday on Thursday...so I'll be doing a little more birthday creating again this week. Aren't birthdays so much fun!?!



I was able to combine three challenges for this card today...Kazan's Sketch #49 at 2Sketches 4 You (gotta love those sketchy girls:), the Color Challenge #60 at The Pink Elephant requiring PASTELS, and Kelly Jo's Color Chef Challenge #45 with white, light purple, light green, and light pink.






No stamps or ink....ack!
Paper: Certainly Celery textured CS, unknown DP and die cuts
Other: unknown rub-ons, border stickers & brads, Paper Piercing Tool, Soft Subtles Brads, Certainly Celery 5/8" Grosgrain, Pinking Hearts Border Punch
