Well.....Happy Birthday to YOU! Thanks for stopping by for this weeks Bloggers Challenge, the theme this week is Birthdays! Yep, you guessed it, I'm in need of a birthday card! Thanks to those who joined in on last weeks color challenge, it's always wonderful to see how others use color!
I'm sharing two cards today, "the same but different". Both cards use the new Heartfelt Creations Flora Grande set, Distressed Leaves set and the flourish from the Decorative Dutch Iris Die. They both also use a sketch from an upcoming Go To Sketches Magazine from PaperCrafts. This first card was one I submitted to the magazine for possible submission, but wasn't picked up. All pattern papers are from Cosmo Cricket.
Remember I told you I needed a BD card, this is the one sent to my mom for her birthday. Same stamps and dies as mentioned above, all papers Basic Grey.

Your cards are stunning, Lisa. Love the Cosmo Cricket papers the patterns are so excellent and I really like the 'sunset' tones. Gorgeous!
Both of these cards are fabulous -- I LOVE that flourish die and use of the flowers. Not sure why they didn't pick up your submission card but I think they missed the boat!
Gorgeous pieces, love the flowers and the circle elements in both. Great papers as always. Tracy Evans x

Lisa these are so beautiful. Those flowers are gorgeous. I am sure you mom loved her card. You can really do some wonderful thinks with those flourishes whether they are die cut or stamps. Beautiful work!

More gorgeous flowers!!! Beautiful cards and I would be pretty sure that your Mom loved her card! Have a great weekend!
Two awesome cards. I love them both, but for some reason my eye keeps going back to the first card. Wonderful work as always.
It should have been picked! Both cards are beautifully done.
Happy Birthday!
Both cards are WONDERFUL! Love the flourishes that your layout is built around! Hope you girls are having a BLAST!!! Happy birthday!
Love the layouts you used for this week's blogger challenge--esp. the 2nd one. Great job--as always!
Wow- I love the number panel and the flowers, and the flourishes. How fun- you and your Mom celebrate Birthday's pretty close together.
Love the design of this card and the flowers are beautiful and wonderful color combination!
I was quite scared of this sketch so I didn't even try it! You did an amazing job on both of these cards! Brilliant!
These colors are really nice on the flowers. Great birthday card.
LIsa I love both cards! The color combination is great and I love the flowers.
