Vintage Happy Birthday To You

Hey there!  I was able to get a little crafty today and made this card for the latest Moxie Fab World challenge: Textured To Perfection.  Lately, I have been on a CAS kick that really doesn't lend itself to a lot of texture.  So I tried to break out and try patterned paper and use up some of the flowers in my drawer!


Using Authentique's Halloween line, I matted it onto black card stock and then onto a Kraft card base.  I layered some different fabric flowers, along with some older mulberry paper flowers from Prima and secured with a big pearl brad.  Lastly, I added a bit of twine and a couple of stick pins.


I never seem to have enough birthday cards around so I figured this girly card would make a nice birthday card!

I hope you have a great day my friend!  Thank you for stopping by!

Lindsay
