Witchy Birthday

"Witchy Birthday" provided by Rick St. Dennis RSD
I know you will see this before your birthday my dear friend ... heavy sigh - I can't figure out a way to make you NOT look!  LOL!  I knew when I saw this image, it had to be for your birthday.  BUT, here is the catch - to which of my dear friends am I speaking???  Ha!  Got ya now!  You don't know for SURE if this is for you - you will have to wait and see!

This is my DT card for 613 Ave Create's latest challenge... it is Anything Goes this week sponsored by Rick St. Dennis.  Once I spotted this RSD image I new a Halloweenie was in the 'cards' *snort*... I know, I know - stupid pun!  You should SEE the diverse projects the team created this week!  You have three entries you can enter for the RSD prize... can't go wrong with such an easy challenge!

[Note: specific information on supplies and sources will be found below under “Supplies”.]
  • Prepared a Z-fold base card 5.5 x 6"
