Anyway I have used the Pretty in Pink from CCT to get my color scheme, the layout of the card is from a sketch by Katharina for PTW and I used some embossing on one of the panels for the Tilda and Co. weekly challenge. (FYI ~ to be entered in for the prize you cannot combine the challenge at Tilda and Co. unless it is a sketch challenge!!)
As soon as I seen the sketch at PTW it looked like, to me anyways, that the panel running horizontal was a flap so I made my card open up there and I put my Happy birthday behind it!!
Paper: MME
Stamps: Magnolia, Hero Arts
Inks: distressed inks, Archival jet black, glitter pen (of course)
Accessories: Ribbon ~ Micheals, Flower ~ Prima, buttons ~ stash. Wish ~ cuttlebug
Well thanks for stopping by!! I am glad I got most of my mowing done! It is 90 here and feels so muggy!! I think it is the hottest day of the summer!! And go figure the kids are in school!!!
Have a great night:)

I am like you I don't like to combine challenges because I just enjoy making cards, but times must I suppose. Anyway honey have a good evening

gorgeous card Kathy and what an interesting opening! the problem is there are just too many challenges I want to enter and not enough time to do them all, so sometimes a bit of combining is a must! annie x
