Happy Birthday/Happy Color Combo
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!
