Two cards done and another birthday card

I finally revamped the card that I ripped the 'opalled' flower off. Did another flower but not as heavy. Changed the colours of the card and made the base card lighter. This one looks better I think. It's sketch challenge 161 over on Splitcoast stampers. Used my new circle nestas too. Just love those dies. The cuttlebug background uses pearlex and acetate to give it that effect.

This card was 'cased' from a card that Karen

taught in one of her early Stampin' Up classes last

year.

I used the same set, Stampin' Up Petal Prints and changed the colours and sentiment. The inks are Adirondacks Brights and Lights. Thanks Karen.

Received another birthday pressie yesterday.

Lots of cardmaking goodies from Shell plus this lovely

birthday card. I'm going to be in deep trouble 'cause she told

me not to put it on here. I like it. All the birthday cards I received are wonderful.

Thanks for everyone's birthday wishes.
