Hello my crafty friends. Thank you for popping by to see my latest project.
Today’s project is for the current Colour INKspiration challenge #CI105.

It would too easy to make a card featuring flowers because of this gorgeous colour combination. So I decided to try something different.
I cut 1/4″ and 1/2″ strips of Fresh Freesia, Mango Melody and Old Olive card so that I could create a floating strips card.

I used the Stitched Stars Dies the cut several different sized stars. Stampin’ Dimensionals were used to ‘float’ them above the embossed base layer. The new Star-Crossed Embossing Folder was used to create the stars background.
The birthday greeting was cut using the Birthday Chick Dies and Foam Adhesive Sheets.

The party hat and birthday cake images are from the Party Puffins Stamp Set. I fussy cut and coloured them to coordinate.
The birthday cake was stamped on the card insert and then coloured. I added one of the stars to the front of the envelope. After I took these photos I went back and added some Clear Wink of Stella to the cake and hat.

I achieved the ‘not a flower in sight’ idea and am so happy with the end result.
This is a really cheerful birthday card. Who would you send it to?
Until next time, happy stamping.
