I may have strayed a bit, but you'll hopefully see the essence here - and that's all Chrissy asks of us - and you, too!
"Today it IS all about you!! Tomorrow? Back to it being all about me!"
I started with a self-made patterned paper that was easily created with a Word document and gradient colors - easy peasy. [I've also done one for Christmas that lists my favorite things, and childhood memories - literally!]
That circle was made from a cover plate from MFT then cut with a SSS stitched circle. Add a little bling... and ta to the da... OH! who noticed the boo-boo in the first photo?
Hope your world is looking more Spring-like every day! Thanks for stopping over... now go create! Chrissy's sketch is just too wonderful to not play cards with us!! I'll be watching and visiting!

Hi Michelle, I love your card and I don't think you have strayed from the sketch at all. It is absolutely perfect and so clean. Love the sparkly bling too! Kx
Whoa! You made your own patterned paper? LOVE the gradient colors! And I don't think you strayed from the sketch because if you did, then I did, too! And we're on the same wonky page.....and I want to make a round layer full of holes now! =)
I love how your card is so soft and pretty, but fun at the same time! Fabulous take on the sketch, Michele!
I love backgrounds made from words Michele and you have made a great one. I love your take on the sketch too, I can see the sketch in your card, so all is good. lol Great card, love that circle. Hum, I think you forgot your circle that says "girl" in your first picture. lol Love that "birthday" die cut too! Hugs, Brenda
That your hand-made design paper is just fab! Great take on the sketch as well!!
LOVE your fab take on the sketch, Michele! Very fun and creative card here! :) We got MORE of that four letter word this morning. When is it going to stop?! Waaah!!!
Gorgeous work - I love it! Jo x
Love your fun design! The soft colors and the print background look fantastic!
LOL...you're hilarious! I love the card and the inside sentiment.

Thanks Brenda... you're such a great cheerleader!

Love your interpretation of the sketch...and with or without the "girl" it is a fab card.
Love your creative approach to the sketch! Pretty colors and the sentiment is hilarious!
Oh my gosh...love that inked left over! So cool...completely see how you were inspired!
Oh my...what a beauty!
Love your gradient words and colours, the scattered dots, sequins...total love!
I love your card Michele - the design is fab and the colours are so pretty:) xx
I LOVE your take on the sketch Michele and I'm smitten with the soft pretty colors!
I love it! Its just beautiful and I love the soft colors. Not feeling that great so I am behind, sorry.
Beautiful birthday card! Awesome colours! Can't believe you made your own designer paper. Need to get a new printer. Badly!
Now you've gone too far. Making your own patterned paper? Although I must confess I did it on a card once, too. Not a card as artsy and wonderful as this. Your creative mind just puts me in awe.
Fabulous card...I love that wonderful background, so beautiful and what a sweet way to say happy birthday!
Cool 'DP', Michele (as that's just what it is!) ... and such a gorgeous holey die cut ... love those dots and sequins scattered around it! I'm thinking the birthday 'girl' had already rushed off to start celebrating! Hugs, Anita :)
First... YOU GET TO MEET LYNN IN PERSON????!!!! How cool is that?! I know the two of you will have a great time, and you must feed us all the deets! Next, this card is magnificent. Love the created dp, and the circles within circle. And those glorious graduated colors. I'm pretty sure I love absolutely everything about this card. Yep. I do! Have fun girly! Bev
This is wonderful. Love those colors and your cool background. And, I cannot find the mistake, even though you tempted me into looking. I think this card is perfect.
Fab card :)
First, I'm simultaneously thrilled, yet green with envy, that Lynn has the opportunity to meet you! I want to meet you! One of these days! Second: your card is simply exquisite...circles within circles, sweet die cut, marvelous colours, fabulous background...Love every single detail!
Hugs~c
