Birthday Wishes!

Here is my take on this week's sketch at the Waltzing Mouse Sketch Challenge:
My first plan was to make it a true window window-card seen from the outside. I was going to have buttons for nails in the corners and a little curtain in the window and flowers on a window sill. But then when I tried to add the sentiment, and the curtain and the flowers it just covered the scene too much so I decided to leave it like this. Instead I made a second card where I moved the sentiment and flipped the sketch so I could use the curtain and I am now showing that for the waltz tomorrow instead.
All the stamps I've used are from Teeny Trees - A true favorite!!!

    Oh my goodness! I absolutely love this card! You created such depth with your shading that I thought it was a window card until I looked closer. Wow, you're a Top Mouse shoo-in.
