Card for my sweet friend May. Image was done over bg made by sponging over a torn paper towel in Barely Blue (Stampscapes tutorial) and sponged ground, topped with Watercolor Minis. The inside is from Stampendous and reads 'Have a Swingin' Brithday', and this is simply because I was not about
to redo the bg after I got the swing crooked! Lol- sometimes it works! I had trouble with the MS border punch not liking the WC paper, and had to use a different border punch inside (because SU punches know how to behave on WC paper!)
Thanks for looking!
