A Bright and Cheery Happy Birthday

Happy Monday!  The other day I received via snail mail the elements for making a card as part of a card swap.  I should have taken a picture, sorry.  The elements were a piece of white card stock stamped with what looks like orange slices in four different colors.  Kind of different and unique.  I'll have to ask her if she made a stamp or used an actual orange?  Another element was a piece of yellow/orange watercolor and the third element was stamped slice of orange.  I did not use the last element - just could not work that in.  

Fortunately, I had orange and green card stock that I used as the card bases.   Stamped Happy Birthday on the watercolor piece and rounded one corner just for a different effect.  Then I added a bow made of multicolored rafia for the final touch.

I love making birthday cards and this one is just so colorful and I know who will be receiving this cheery card for her birthday!



I'll be posting this card to Seize the Birthday





Have a great week!
