Seize the Birthday - # 245 Follow a Sketch

What a surprise for me when our challenge Hostess JoAnn picked a topping of Follow a Sketch. This is a comment challenge for many other challenges, but I think the first time for Seize the Birthday. 
Of course, if you are not a toppings kind of crafter, just make sure that it is a Birthday Card. 

I decided to use up some of the many design papers that I have collected. 
Here is what I came up with. It was pretty easy and I got to use up some of the many 
design papers that I have collected.  
Thanks, JoAnn
