Overlapping Folds Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday - Front

Made another simple and clean card for some challenges.

Paper Smooches Stamps SPARKS Challenge - Designer Drafts Challenge

The sketch from Paper Smooches Stamps SPARKS Challenge - Designer Drafts Challenge has prompted me to make a clean and simple (CAS) overlapping gate folded card. The photo inspiration from Cupcake Inspirations - Challenge 186 as shown below has inspire me to use the Paper Smooches free digital cupcake stamp to make a birthday card.
