Anne's gallery is so full of adorable cards and I could CASE each one if time permitted. I finally chose to case her Red Geraniums: Red Geraniums by ardodd at Splitcoaststampers I kept the same layout, changed the image, moved the ribbon to the bottom and added a fun button instead of bow, flipped my white panel so I could use my candle punch and the candles wouldn't burn my ribbon if I had left them at the bottom as they would have been upside down. LOL I added a sentiment and now I have a birthday card. Congratulations to Anne, this is so well deserved. Enjoy your day!!

LOVE your candle border and the bermuda bay and white color combo along with the matching ribbon Benz!! Always love the pocket silhouettes too and they look perfect with your card. I've still been slow getting going as my son is still on holiday, but goes back Monday and my husband has been home more than normal. I'm trying to get to this FS challenge today or sometime this week. I really LOVE your interpretation of Anne's card and that button is so pretty on top of the ribbon. TFS your beautiful card Benz and I'm sure Anne will absolutely love it!! TFS!!

P.S. I see you carried your border punch to the inside of the card. Looks great. P.S. I'm glad you decided to put your candles on top of the card rather than the bottom. That might not have ended too well!!! LOL!!! TFS!

Benda, this card is gorgeous, girl. Love teal and I love how you used oval nesties to create a fabulous showcase for your delicate image. Great creativity to switch up Anne's card. It's really stellar.

So pretty - I love this SU! color and that ribbon is gorgeous. I wanted all the ribbons when the new colors came out, but could only get a couple. The candle punch is super cool too. Great case and card!
