New technique for a Happy Birthday card

After being glued to HSN for 24-hour craft event, I noticed more and more the "distressed look". I hadn't tried it until this card.

I distressed the beige sheet where the Happy Birthday is on, as well as the inside main greeting sheet with brown ink and I love the way it turned out. I also weaved ribbon for the top outline. I love trying new things so if you have any ideas, please send them my way =)

Happy Birthday ~ from husband to wife

Happy Birthday Princess

This was just one of those cards that looks so much better in person than in in pictures. It took me so many different attempts and locations to get the full color of the pictures because of lighting, and even then I don't think it captured it, but it really was precious =)
