Happy Birthday, Kara!

It's Kara's birthday today!
If you don't know Kara, her blog is KandRDesigns and everything she makes is absolutely fabulous!
She is a constant source of inspiration for me!

And in honour of her birthday, a birthday blog hop has been planned, by Joyce.

Here's the card that I made for Kara....


I used some Echo Park (pinks) and Stampin' up! (text) patterned paper. 
I also used my WMS Two Step Floral & Compact Sentiments stamp sets.

I was inspired by this week's Fusion Challenge to create my card.


Here's the list of Kara's friends who are participating in the blog hop:


Thanks for looking!
