Aqua Challenge Birthday Card

Weeks and weeks ago (or is it months?) the challenge at the Less Is More blog was to create a CAS card using AQUA.

I knew just what I wanted to do, but had no time to do it that week. Or the next. But eventually I got my card made.

This, unfortunately, is NOT a mail friendly card. But I do hand-deliver some cards throughout the year, so this will be one of them.

That paper flower is soooo pretty. I found a package on clearance at Michaels a long time ago and ended up adding a few more packages to my stash the next time I visited that store. They just called to me.  One of the packages I picked up had black and white paper flowers and I used several of them on the items I made for our daughter's wedding in February!

The card is 4-1/2 x 6", and is a soft grey textured card stock. I believe Tim Holtz makes the paper tape, and the pretty word stamp is a Papertrey Ink one. Another favourite - I love this larger size! The aqua card stock is Baja Breeze (SU) - another favourite of mine.

Hope you like my - very late - card for that great challenge. Thanks for stopping by today!
