Black and Red Birthday

Hello!
It's the weekend!  Are you excited?  Does anyone have any big plans?  We don't quite know what's going on but it will be an exciting weekend for sure!  The boys are having a "Boys Party" on Saturday night.  They are going to be camping in the backyard.  They will set up the tent and sleep out there...hope they have fun with the skunks and raccoons...maybe even a possum or two!  I'll update you on Sunday!

Today's card did not turn out the way I wanted.  I'm a little disappointed.  I'm really not sure what I had in mind but this isn't it.  Alas...that happens and we just make the best of it.  I used the MOJO Monday sketch as a starting point then picked some of my favourite colours (Black, red and crumb cake) and combined that with the SU-Only Challenges of using DSP in a creative way and voila!  This is what we ended up with.

Sometimes things don't turn out the way we had hoped!  I originally made the card and didn't emboss the background.  The card looked too plain...then I used the Fancy Fan EF and realized after I put it all together that the two embossing folders don't really go together!!!  My flower is made with the Blossom Punch (I punched out three) then scrunching them up and separating the layers slightly.  I added a Boho Blossom flower in the centre followed by a flower button from the Neutrals pack!
