Happy Birthday

I got up this morning and had a few ideas running around in my head, why on the days that I don't plan to be in the craft room I get the ideas, and the days I plan to be here all day, I have nothing to work with.  OK, well yesterday I made my mother-in-law a Birthday Card which she will be getting this evening.  While I was making this card a had a few ideas and decided I would put them to the paper in the morning.....well...I have lost those and now working from the nights sleep I lost thinking........about this card.

I guess my ideas come from the paper I see.  I see paper and then realize what it would look like on a card. This paper I used on this card today is from a little pad of paper I bought, I believe it is like a small 4 1/2x6 1/2 inch paper from DCWV, I believe I purchased it at Hobby Lobby.  I have enjoyed making the flowers for the last two cards from the Stampin Up scalloped punches.  The stamped greetings are Stampin Up and I just love them for a birthday card.  I have really been using the Spellbinders dies and I enjoy how much a card becomes alive with them.  I have ordered some more dies and I hope I can find things to use them for.

    I'm new-ish to the blog world, so there's not a whole lot on my blog (I'm a big chicken when it comes to posting my creations, I'm hoping having blog friends will help push me to post them)!

    Thank you so much for sharing your card!
