This is my last live post before I head to California -- but I have several posts scheduled to pop up while I am away.
Tracey McNeely is our Muse this week and she gave us this darling birthday card.
I was very much inspired by her card, but mine isn't a strict casing of it. I hope you can see how some of the elements inspired me. (diecut, color backdrop on a white card panel, non-white card base)
My Altenew Magnolia is mounted on foam. The backdrop color is provided by a SU burlap background stamp (Love it!!!) and instead of a black banner sentiment I chose black stamping on this mostly monochromatic card. Thanks for the inspiration Tracey!
Thanks so much for stopping by.

A lovely take on Trecay's Muse card, Cat. (It reminds me of the FMS this week)
