Today's Free for All Challenge is to take a break from Christmas and make a birthday card...so that's just what I did...got away from blues and greens and reds and all those Christmas embellishments that I seem to be attracted to lately...and stepped into the girlie birthday card region!
I love how this card turned out. That wonderful woodgrain paper, my DH picked out for me at Paper Zone while he was home on leave...
Who the lucky recipient of this card will be still remains a mystery...for now, I'm happy to hoard it all to my self...
Thanks for looking! Happy Stampin! God Bless!

Oh my, what a gorgeous girly card - l love the colors, the bg paper (your DH has great taste, not sure I could trust mine to get something so lovely!) Also love the butterfly, rolled roses and pretty sentiment! Can't neglect to mention the pearls - fab!
