"Happy Birthday" card by Christine Chain
Supplies – patterned paper: My Mind’s Eye, Authentique; paper flowers: unknown, (in Green Tangerine’s January kit club); brads: Bo Bunny; fabric letters: American Crafts; ink: Tsukineko; other: embroidery floss

Variation #1 - The most obvious change I made was that I used half of an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of cardstock to make the card 4 1/4 x 5 1/2. I kept all the other dimensions the same.


Variation #2 - I omitted the swirl and used larger letters for the sentiment. Which makes the title block more of a background than a block, but I like it like that :)
