Birthday Blessings

 

5 challenges inspired today's card...

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge // #AHSC366 ...A sketch challenge!!  This sketch was a tough one.  It took me a minute to figure out the layers and implement them.  I hope I got it right.

Inspired By Challenges // #IB376 ...A "photo inspired" challenge with an optional sketch!!  Inspired by TEA GARDEN!!  My inspiration from the photo: the florals in a cup, and the pink & green!  Today I opted not to use the sketch.

Just Us Girls // #JUG811 ...A "mood board" challenge!!  My inspiration from the photo/moodboard: the pinks and the mug.  Oh so pretty in pink!!

Little Red Wagon // LRW846 ...A theme challenge!!  "A Billy Joel themed challenge. This time's song is "Just the Way You Are" and I'm looking for projects of any kind that celebrate somebody (even yourself!). Think birthday, love you or celebration cards and projects", says Kate from the LRW team.

First Cup Challenges // #11 ...A monthly "any kind of drink" challenge!!  When these florals die off this mug will make for a yummy cup of joe!!  Here's to the first cup from this mug!!
