I made this card for Annie, Anita's mother who turned 80 on July 19...this last week's Teapot Challenge. I'm a bit late, but made it before the next Teapot Tuesday!
She loves fashion, flowers and gardens, so I found this piece of Graphic 45 Vintage paper in my "stash." I started cutting it up and arranging it in a collage...fussy cutting roses, tags and a butterfly. I added lots of sparkle with a Wink of Stella glitter brush, which is hard to see in the photo. I also popped up the tag and birthday sentiment and added a little "nylon" ribbon at the top (nylon was part of Teapot challenge). I added some gem swirls and a "Candi Fix" brad. I wrote Annie's name on the front. I also wrote a large "Happy Birthday Annie" inside because her vision isn't good. I glued lots of pretty paper punched butterflies inside, too.
This card is also for the ABC challenge, letter P for the word "post card" on one of my collage layers. (I also think it could be for pretty papers.)

Somehow I missed this beauty for Annie. I love tags on cards, but never know how to use them. This has a great vintage collage look, Gracie. I love it!
