Hello friends. It is time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Cathy wants us to use a Rainbow of Colors. Of course you can always just make a regular birthday card if you are not into our "Topping" option.
Here is the card I came up with.
I cut a white panel and then blended these inks in rainbow fashion: Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Call Me Clover, Pacific Point, Highland Heather and another row of Real Red. I cut the panel down to to fit behind the Sizzix Tartan Plaid die cut, and then glued it to the white card base. I used Birch Press Splendid Cosmos Contour Layers die for the flower cut from Pale Papaya and sponged Pumpkin Pie ink in the centers before gluing the layers together. The center is cut from Crumb Cake and Early Espresso. The leaves are cut from Pear Pizzazz with a little Call Me Clover ink sponged on one side. I glued the flower on and then glued the leaves under the petals. I didn't think about it, but the flower covers the Highland Heather row. The sentiment is from Waffle Flower Essential Sentiments and cut with the matching die, and I added 2 plain layers under the stamped layer for some dimension.
Be sure to check out all the fabulous cards by the Team and our Party Guest over at Seizer the Birthday. I hope to see you in our gallery.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day.
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
