A Couple of Challenges

I am joining in a couple of challenges today, just playing for fun.  Simon Says is celebrating their 5th year of challenges and wanted a birthday/ celebration card.  I went to my Simon Says goodie basket and came up with this card.

I love the fun chipboard pieces included in this package that I WON from Simon Says!  I believe this is part of the card kit from March or April.  Since there is a subtle use of turquoise, I am also entering this into the Less is More Challenge. It's been forever since I played in this challenge...


I also wanted to support Jacquie Southas this week over at The Muse Challenge.

I went with some colored paste and stenciling.  I really like the look, and it mails so much easier, being flat and all.  My birthday is from Memory Box.

You have until Monday to play in the Muse Challenge.



Thanks for stopping by~
