HUGE congrats to Vicki, our 65th Queen for the Day! Vicki, I had hours (really) of fun in your gallery and loved your IC Birthday card! Your textures and beautiful flowery tree were inspiring! Done like a true Dirty Girl- even way back then! Enjoy your day friend!
I used a different tree image, and changed the layout to incorporate the Joy Fold so I could play along with the Twisted Sisters- my "home base". At first I had the inside tag on the front, like Vicki, but the Joy Fold was not kind to my tag, and bent it! Ugh...live and learn! Using my Kitty Kit from Rubbernecker, I added my favorite leaves, and then sprinkled in some Watercolor Mini's to fill out the branches.
Thanks for looking!

Oh, this is gorgeous. And a beautiful CASE. I love how you carried the design on to the inside of the card. I always forget about the inside of my cards - I have got to step out of my comfort zone on that one. Again, just a beautiful card TFS.
