Today is Melissa's Birthday and as a design team we wanted to send her greetings and wishes for a wonderful day.
There will be a birthday giveaway at the end of this post, so be sure to read through to the end ☺

Evgenia's card features our 5th Avenue Collection along with the Birthday flash card.
Emeline made a bright and cheerful card featuring our Kitchsy Kitchen papers along with our beautiful White Pick (GN517).
Our 5th Avenue Collection and cardstock combine for a simple, yet sophisticated card from Johanna.
Taleneted Francophone Fabienne used our "happy Aniversary" rub-on as Anniversaire is the word for Birthday in French! This card combines our Kitschy Kitchen collection with our blue/white (GN464) and Cream/white (GN466) crepe paper garlands, and our cream (GN530) and pink (GN529) pom-pom trim.
From Sherrie here is a 5th avenue Shabby-Chic styled card.
