My husband's Granny turns 90 and her surprise party is tomorrow. I laid in bed last night and and decided on how to make her birthday card. If it looks familiar, it's because I used a very SIMILAR DESIGN for a sympathy card recently. The only thing I hadn't nailed down is what colors to use. Apparently no one knows Granny's favorite color.
Well lo and behold, along comes Kristina's Color Challenge! Perfect! So here's the card. I used cardstock in the colors and some pattened paper from Unforgettable. (which I totally forgot the name to and had to look up.) The butterfly is stamped in Crystal Blue on vellum and embossed with clear EP.
For once a concept and a challenge actually came together for me. Cool!
Supplies all CTMH.
Stamps: Treasure Life, Butterflies, Happy Birthday
Inks: Blush, Crystal Blue, Tulip
Paper: cardstock and Unforgettable
Other: Crystal Blue ribbon, edge distressor, clear detail embossing powder
