This card is for the Seize the Birthday#3 to make a feminine birthday card. Unfortunately, my card didn't really photograph well, as green colors always seem to turn out wonky for me. I used papers and card stock from a retired SU! scrapbook kit that I've had for years. I also added artichoke and river rock card stock. I layered the HA flower & leaves, and paper pieced them with 3 different papers from the kit, popping each layer up on dimensionals. The coral borders and 2 smaller circles are stickers from the kit. The artichoke panel was done with a CB Decorative Tiles ef, and the sentiment is from CAS-ual Friday stamps. I added some black rhinestones from Pizzazz Aplenty for the flower center, circle centers, and sentiment panel. The sentiment panel was also a border sticker that I just cut down to fit. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, or what setting on my camera is off, but my photos always appear to be blurry, but clicking on them brings them into focus?!
We're bracing for a little snow here in PA later on this afternoon, so I'll probably be making a few more challenge cards today! Thanks for stopping by and keep warm!
