Happy Birthday Halloween Style | Heart 2 Heart

Check out this Happy Birthday card that I made for my sister-in-law, Sarah's upcoming birthday on Halloween .... {Happy Birthday Sarah!!!} This week over at Heart 2 Heart Challenges we are having a Birthday theme challenge. Please join us and submit your project.

I love the simplicity of this card. It was inspired by a card I saw in the recent issue of CardMakers magazine. Once I saw it I couldn't wait to recreate it with Close To My Heart's noted background stamp for the gingham. How cool is it that to create your our own gingham paper in what ever color you choose? Gotta love CTMH background stamps!!!

Want to know how I made that pretty paper flower? Click here to see my recent blog post about it. The only difference was I inked 3 of the circles black to make it more halloween-ish. =}

Great background stamping! I tried that once, but couldn't get my patern repeat lined up evenly and I gave up. Is this a gatefold card? I love cards the recipient has to "open", they are like a present in themselves. Beautiful flowers too!
