Birthday Wishes

 Hello there friends!

I've been trying out a new card folding that I found on Splitcoaststampers, a Twist Gate Fold card. This is how it turned out...


... I used papers from Paper Rose/Sunny Days and some leftover paper. I die cut a frame using Gummiapan Chevron Rectangle dies and stamped the sentiment with a stamp from Rox Stamps. I finished the card with some flowers from my stash.

As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs, Birgit
