I love how this card turned out and I hope you do too! I'm on a birthday card kick (need to replenish my non-kid stash) as well as playing around with Greenhouse Garden - a set of mine that has been sadly neglected ... So, in search of inspiration, I used today's sketch challenge over on SCS as well as Julie Buhler's Colour Concoction! I also used the sewing machine on this one as it was still out -- I don't know if you can see it around the oval? That was an interesting shape to sew ...

Anyways, hope you like it! Thanks for poppin' in :) I appreciate your visits and comments more than words can say!!!

Wow, I sure love how it turned out, too! My Greenhouse Garden set has also been sadly neglected, sitting on the shelf, unmounted! You're inspiring me to do something with it!
