Birthday Smirk

Another card I wanted to get done out of the way, is the one for my eldest daughter (don't think she checks Mum's blog, so hopefully it will be safe enough to post it just now). For some reason I always find it difficult making her cards.

How did the finished card come about? The inspiration for the layout came from two challenges which I am putting the card forward for. The layout came from Sketch Saturday and the recipe ingredients, 3 buttons, 2 designer papers and 1 ribbon came from Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge.

The striped and mini floral paper came from Say it with a Smirk as did the image. The mats are from K&Company's Recycled Remake Berry Pinks paper pad. The flowers were punched from the same mini floral paper and the buttons and ribbon are from my stash.

Thanks for popping by.
