This "Best of Birthdays" musical card is for our almost 14 yo grandson Avery's birthday. I had a blast combining "5" challenges into one special card for Avery :-) The glittery popped up pkg really pops out IRL !
The "5" Challenges:
1. CAS208 inspired by a musical quote
2. CAS209 Featured CAS Stamper "simplybeautiful" CASE'D Text Christmas Card
3. CC415 "More Old Muse" with watercoloring (dessert)
4. TLC418 Circles
5. SC424 Sketch by Korin last week
Korin and Ceal's layouts were very similar, so I was able to use both in my card and combine for 2 of my challenges :-)
I changed Ceal's card to a birthday instead of Christmas. You will recognize the similarities.
I love the new SU "Best Of"...monthly stamp sets during their 25th Anniversary year. The gift pkg and sentiment are from the set.
Enjoy and have fun recognizing the 5 awesome challenges. Thanks girls for always inspiring.

Fabulous card, Nancy! You came up with a great design for a teenage boy--Avery will really like it! Love the idea of the sparkly dots on the present, the simple circle framing and especially the different colors for the sentiment letters!
