Atlantic Hearts 194 - Birthday Card with Dreamin' Big

Happy New Year from Atlantic Hearts! 

The sketch this week is a layered one and I chose to use a brand new paper pack from the new Seasonal Expressions 1 Catalog from Close To My Heart. There are 4 new paper packs available and Dreamin' Big is just one of them, but it is the focus of this birthday card. I have a lot of friends' birthdays in the month of January so what better way to celebrate than with a card created using a brand new paper pack?? 

I mounted each patterned paper on a thin layer of black cardstock just for emphasis. The zip strip at the bottom was placed on a layer of Saffron cardstock and then on Sea Glass glitter paper for added interest. This card came together so easily as the sketch was so straightforward.
