Happy Birthday!

Hi there!

How are you doing on this Thursday afternoon?
I just want to share with you a card I made for
the challenge over at City Crafter.  It's been
awhile since I entered a challenge there.  I'll tell
ya what.  I fussed and fussed with the above card.
For some reason I just couldn't get it quite to my
satisfaction.  I love the washi tape that I used with
the pretty butterflies.  My shabby style with layering
I think didn't do it enough justice.  I'll have to
make another card with the lovely washi tape to
highlight it more.

Anyways, the challenge called for the use of a tag
and washi tape.  I adhered two strips of washi tape
along the left border to center.  And, I have a strip
of washi tape down the center of the tag.  The stamp
set I used is Papertrey Ink.  Circles were layered
over a doily.  Tiny flowers were punched and
pearls were placed.  The lovely flower and
matching ribbon is from Close to My Heart.

It's my first time using washi tape.  It is so easy
to use and so many lovely prints available!  I would
love to have the washi tape in the inspiration photo...
so pretty!

Here is another view of the card...

Well, that's all I have for now.  In just a few days I
have some very exciting news to share with you!
Do take care and have a wonderful Easter, hugs!
