Don't you wish today was your birthday?

Because if it WAS your birthday, you just might be, MAYBE the lucky person who is going to receive this card:
The boys' godmother's birthday is today and this is the card she'll be receiving. It's her husband's birthday too (how fun is that?), so I need to get a card made for him as well. I think I'll go with the same colour theme and then they'll match when displayed together. What do you think?

This is the card that I made for the Chat and Challenge I hosted on SUDSOL on Monday afternoon. I created the sketch in MDS:
I know a lot of people don't like a white card base (and some specifically advise against it in swaps), but I think it gives the card a nice crisp feel.

What do you think?

  4. What a beautiful card!

    White bases are really great when you want colors to pop or are going for a really elegant look. Just depends on the card and its creator. In this case the white base is absolutely perfect!
