Happy Birthday for JUGS & Color Me challenges

I combined two challenges for my card today. I used the sketch at Just Us Girls and the colors from the new Color Me Card Challenge - this is their 2nd challenge, I missed the first one.  I used Whisper White, Melon Mambo and Marina Mist CS and the DSP is Marina Mist, and  the Melon Mambo is from the Gingham Garden collection.  I embossed the white panel with SU Snowburst EF.  The flower is made with an EK Success punch and the center is several punches with the Family Treasures Sun punch.  I saw this tutorial somewhere in cyberspace, but can't remember where.  If I find it, I will add the link.  You cut the sun punches on one side to half way and then wrap them around the tip of your tweezers and glue a bunch of them to the center.  The sentiment is from MFT's Vintage Frames set and is cut and matted with MFT's Fishtail Flags and Fishtail Flags Layers dies.
 
Thanks for stopping by my blog.  Have a great day.
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
