Isn’t it beautiful!?! It’s more of the Decorative Handmade Paper that a good friend gave me a little over a year ago.
Even the Bitty Blossom and leaves are made with it.
Now don’t tell anyone, but a large area of the bottom layer of this precious paper (the part that is covered with a coordinating designer paper) was actually cut out. It only looks like it is layered. So now, instead of being covered up, I have a good sized piece of paper to use another day while still getting the look of layers. LOVE.
One of the challenges that this card is playing in is Craftyhazelnut’s Patterned Paper April Challenge. I’m hoping that this little trick on the bottom layer doesn’t break the rules to cover the card base with dp… I mean there is designer paper all over the front of the card… right? 
There are four other challenges, too:
Simon Says Monday Challenge: Anything Goes
Papertake Weekly Challenge: Anything Goes
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Happy Birthday!
Seize the Birthday: “Buttons and Rhinestones (Any type of Bling will work!)” I used a whole bunch of lovely black KaiserCraft Adhesive Pearls.
Happy Crafting!
