SC #77 : A 21st BIRTHDAY CARD

I've discovered a new (well, new to me) papercraft challenge blog!!  It would appear, as this is the 77th challenge, that it's been around for a while - but I just don't know how I have never stumbled across it before.  Here's the gorgeous inspiration pic for this month's challenge at Stampin' Celebration:



I was particularly inspired by the creamy neutrals, the script, flowers, butterfly, lace, and music notes ... they all came together on a card I made for a special young woman, who is a talented singer and song-writer (and who I will be enjoying lunch with tomorrow).

Here's what I made:




 
Stamps: En Francais, Petite Petals, Memorable Moments
Card: Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake
DSP: Modern Medley Designer Series Paper
Ink: Crumb Cake stampin' pad, Versamark inkpad
Other: Gold stampin' emboss powder, Labels Collection framelits, Bitty Butterfly punch, Petite Petals punch, Victoria Crochet lace trim, Crumb Cake seam binding, Basics Glimmer Brad, Basic Pearls, sponge dauber, Stamp-a-ma-jig, glue dots
