Round We Go - Florette Birthday Card

Round We Go

 


Have you ever made a card that you were just Gah-Gah over??  This card is that for me.  I just love how it turned out!  I see a couple of small places that I could have made better, but the person that I was making the card for kept coming into the room...... LOL!!  

I made todays card for John's birthday, and am thrilled to share it with you in this Birthday Wishes Blog Hop.  I hope you enjoy this free tutorial.  The list of products used are listed at the end of this post.  Below my tutorial, you will find a list of live links to the blog posts from everyone that participated in this Blog Hop.  Be sure to visit everyone's blog for maximum inspiration for your next card creation.
