Insomnia

Insomnia can be a good thing - in moderation. I couldn't sleep last night so I "played". This card is for the Kaboodle Doodles recipe challenge: 3 papers, 2 embellishments, 1 image. The green/blue mix and the dark blue papers are My Mind's Eye: Confetti. The tan burlap looking paper is HOTP. The 2 white brads are from stash. The image is "Quiet Afternoon" from Phindy's Place colored with Copic Markers. 

Phindy's Place challenge is to make a birthday card. Our twin great niece & nephew have a birthday coming up. This is Emily's card. The image is from Phindy's Place (of course). The flowered paper is Me & My Big Ideas. and the cardstock is DCWV. I used double stick Dazzle flowers with blue glitter to give sparkle to the card. "Birthday Wishes" acrylic tile is from JoAnn's.
