This birthday card is for two challenges.
First, I've used the sketch at the Freshly Made Sketches#589 here.
And then the colors are for Just Us Girls#682 here. The colors are blue, purple and gray so I went with Azure Afternoon, Gorgeous Grape and Gray Granite.
These colors spoke to me because this card is for my Dad's 81st birthday and one of my Mom's favorite colors was purple. She's been gone almost 8 years now but I know my Dad will enjoy this card with a little nod to Mom too!
Alphabest, Biggest Wish, Beautiful Balloons and Little Dreamers are the stamp sets with some Bright & Beautiful DSP.
Here's my recipe:
Stamps: Alphabest, Biggest Wish, Beautiful Balloons and Little Dreamers
Papers: White, Gray Granite, Azure Afternoon, Bright & Beautiful DSP
Inks: Gray Granite, Azure Afternoon, Gorgeous Grape
Accessories: Stylish Shapes dies, Best Label punch, Glossy Dots Assortments, Stampin dimensionals
