With all that was going on with John having been in hospital and lack of sleep etc I just didn't really feel like starting one from scratch, so I did a makeover on a card that originally was made for Easter. This time the card is for a birthday - and the inside within the easel is different from the original card.
The stamp is a lovely Stampotique one, the papers are BG and the flowers Craftime, with the addition of some punched edging and ribbons.
I'm linking for a few other challenges, but if you think it's cheating because it's not completely new, then I'll understand if it's not acceptable:Stamp insanity 8: 'easel does it!'

Penny's challenges 28: 'shapes' - shaped card
