Bright Birthday!

Today is a Friday that thinks it's a Monday at my house... SO many things this morning. I was excited to make a card IN my craft room today (first time in months! - it's been way too messy!) buut that meant the card wasn't exactly like the things I was trying to follow. So we'll go with 'based on'... 

The sketch is "based on" the latest from Freshly Made Sketches. (the two panels don't line up)
And the colors are "based on" the colors in the inspiration from Just Add Ink. (should have used Crushed Curry instead)
And the result is happy and fun and it's fiiiine. I also mixed old with brand new, ha. The greeting is from the new catalog. Everything else is retired.
Supplies:
Stamps: Simply Said, Creative Elements (retired)
Ink: Calypso Coral, Lemon Lolly
Paper: Calypso Coral, Basic White card stocks, Bright & Beautiful DP
Accessories: White Baker's Twine, Dimensionals

  4. These cheery colors are perfect for a birthday card! And it's fine that things aren't exactly like the inspiration pics -- after all, they are provided to get you creating your own card. Straying a little bit is part of the creative process. Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches this week!
