CAS(E) this Sketch #254 - happy birthday

I made a card for the CAS(E) this Sketch #254 this weekend.



Here's Leigh's elegant sketch:




I basically copied the challenge sketch and added a little kitschy twist. 

When I saw the sketch, I thought about one of the die sets I bought when I started card making several years ago. I liked the set but somehow I hadn't used it. So I finally did. It's the light gray frame.


Thanks for checking in!
