Okay, another challenge for me! It's hard for me to find the time to play challenges, so I'm patting myself on the back for this accomplishment!
This challenge is inspired by a sketch by Carly Robertson. It's a cool sketch; I like the three images in a row. Thanks, CAS team!
I did lots of subtle work here, with sponging around the topiaries, and sponging/stamping the Happy Birthday tag, and stamping tone-on-tone along the border-punched section (used the fern from Touch of Nature/SU).
This is my husband's birthday card. I know it's not the most masculine, but hey I think it's okay.
Thanks for looking!

I think it's way more than OK--it's fabuous!! My DH expects cards from me that reflect my stlyle so he doesn't mind if they are not super masculine....anyhoo great job on the challenge :-D

Congrats on squeezing in this challenge card, Colleen!! It's a beauty--and I think perfect for your hubby's BDay!! Those Flourishes topiaries are so nicely colored and your sponging looks terrific I love your overall color scheme and background prints. The MS Wrought Iron Gate punch is PERFECT for your topiary/garden theme!! Way to go on this very impressive creation!!
