Happy Birthday/Happy Color Combo

HB LAZ Today’s color challenge on SCS is to use Blue Bayou, Soft Sky and Cameo Coral… another surprise color combo!  I don’t think I’d ever have thought to combine these colors, but I like them! 

I need quite a few birthday cards this month so I thought I’d take advantage of every opportunity to make one.

For this card, I used Blissful Blossoms by Lizzie Anne Designs.  Such a fun set!  One of my flowers is so happy it’s jumping out of the ground. lol.  Oh well.  I didn’t have time to start over.

I stamped the biggest blossom and the bee a second time onto Papertrey Ink white cardstock, colored and cut them out.  After adhering to the card front with dimensionals, I bent the bees wings and the flower petals a bit for just a tad more interest.

If you’re a fan of Lizzie Anne Designs, be sure to check out Lindsey‘s blog!  She’s having a contest with awesome prizes!  You have until August 15th to participate!

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!
