Quilted Happy Birthday

We had more snow yesterday. I plan to stay in today and make cards.  This card was started sometime ago and recently  finished but never posted. I used 1/4" strips of DP that I taped on a card stock and then cut into 1/4" strips and then made into a quilt. I was inspired to make this sometime ago from a card by my friend  Lin at Sending Hugs but do not have the post to link too. She makes so many beautiful cards.  I layered the "quilt" on to a border of striped DP strips using mitered corners to better replicate a finished quilt. I attached this to a card base of green.  Finished with a sentiment and triple organdy bow for my Mother's recent birthday.

I could never be a quilter...I had a hard enough time laying out patterns in this small rectangle. Next time I will use wider strips than I used here. I enjoy all your comments. Thank you. Theresa
