Special Birthday Wishes for Divas by Design

Well I hope you are having a good August and that the sun is shining on you. Have a happy holiday if you are away for your summer break.


This is my design team card for the next challenge at Divas by Design and for this fortnight we want to see your birthday creations.

I have used a glittered backing paper from my First Edition Spring Fest pack, edged with cranberry and the flowers paper from Porcelain, edged with peeled paint. The rosette is a Tim die (of course) and I added a sentiment I made myself in PE. The shabby bow I made using my vintage ribbon and spritzing it with water and swooshing it through the Adirondack cranberry ink.


Have a great week, wherever you are and whatever you are doing.

luv and hugs {brenda} xoxox
