  1. Make a birthday card
  2. Incorporate a flower or more if you'd like
  3. Happy colors please - just nothing overly dark
  4. Finish the inside too
OK, well this card looked better in my head :(
I Love the colors from MFW's inspriration photo and thought I would incorporate the flowers with mat colors to match....I don't why or how this happens, but anywho, here's my card, the inside is for Carol's challenge!

    Helen, I think this card is gorgeous! I love the colors. Peachy orange, aqua blues and purples rank very high on my list of colors that I love. The inside is so beautiful! Thank you for joining in and celebrating my 'year long' birthday. I'm in St. Augustine, Florida at the moment but will get to the computer later tonight to find out who the winners are for this challenge I posted.
