Blogger's Challenge - Birthday Card

Well, I am VERY late in getting my card posted. We were supposed to post a Birthday Card on Friday, and it's already Sunday! YIKES!

Anyway, I thought that this would be very easy... But I guess the easier the requirements are, the harder it can be to come up with an idea. You can get sidetracked too easy, while pulled into too many directions and things you want to try out.

I finally decided to use scraps that I had on my stamp desk and go for it!

This is the card I finally came up with:
