Cut It Up #43 Birthday Cards Challenge

Cut It Up

Challenge #43 Birthday Cards

My Project:
Happy Friday!
I am actually kind of glad to have a project that isn't Easter related :)
It was a nice change to put together this fun Birthday Card,
and I hope you will join us for this challenge over at Cut It Up!

I used Art Philosophy for the present cut out and the scallop border along the side.  I cut the border out at 1" and the present out at 2 1/2".  Most of the paper comes from My Mind's Eye Tangerine 6x6 pack and then some scraps that I had in my stash.  The layout is from Mojo Monday's sketch they issued this week, so I will be linking this up over there and My Craft Spot has a challenge to use a banner or tag.  I hope that the banners I used on my card will qualify :)  I will also enter this into Pause Dream Enjoy.  My twine is from American Crafts and I popped up my mats and present on some foam tape.  The pearls are from Michael's Recollection.

Thanks for checkin' in!

If you are interested in purchasing the Art Philosophy cartridge, or any Close to My Heart products,

And remember, if you place an order of $50 or more you can get the Stamp of the Month for only $5!!!
