Sketch Challenge Crazy

I think I have gone challenge crazy!  I have bunches of cards for August birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, etc, and I have been looking to challenges for inspiration.  This one is for the Create with Connie and Mary #261.

       

I came up with this:

I didn't notice until now that I had covered up part of the words.  I'll have to fix that. hehe.  I made this as a birthday card, using the Happy Birthday sentiment that came with the set on the inside. I picked Pool Party and found a color combination in the Color Coach. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, overall.

Thanks for looking!
