Simply Said Birthday Card

Hi all,

I have been busy making a birthday card for a good friend of mine and couldn't help but use more of the Elegant Soiree DSP. I just love this colour combination and I teamed it up with the Seam Binding Ribbon that is just gorgeous. I have seen so many creations with the ruffled effect, that I decided to brave it and have a go myself...

Here's the card I've made for the birthday girl :) Happy Birthday Sally...
