Hi! This card was made for today's Ways To Use It Challenge: NUMBRS.
Well, I have to admit, I tore my office apart looking for number charms...I don't even have one that says, "#1 Dad!" What??? I have 8 boxes of charms...No numbers!!! So, I decided to use a Happy Birthday Charm and a CB number folder for today's card.
While I was making it, Dad called an asked me to make a birthday card for a lady on his Meals on Wheels route, so this card was meant to be!LOL
I started out with a piece of designer paper from Memory Box and sanded off areas so that the blooms wouldn't have to "fight" for exposure. I stamped the images in Espresso and sponged in the blooms with Reflection Blue. Then, I filled in the buds with an Inkssentials pen. The edges were sponged in with Raw Sienna. The small Hazel Nut Tan layer was stamped with Basket Weave.

Love your layout, and that ribbon is so very pretty! I was going to use that CB EF on a card for this challenge too, but I went with a scrap book page instead. GMTA though!
