Birthday Card with Bling

It is my wonderful friends birthday this weekend, so I thought I would show you the card I have made for her.  Its the big 3-0 for her, so I wanted to make something special


I used my sizzix embossing folders for the background and laid that on shimmer white card.  The sentiment in the middle is printed on the same shimmer card. I added a little bit of sparkle to the ribbon as you can't go wrong with it for a birthday card!

I have entered this card into both the Less is More Challenge and the Reasonable Ribbon Challenge.

    Oh I am so jealous of bows, I can't do them, I try and try but always make a mess. This is a fabulous card, love the colours.
