Happy Birthday

 Hello friends.  I have had a busy week as we had Vacation Bible School at church and I was one of the craft helpers.  Today is the first time I have had to make a card and I was inspired by two challenges:  Color Hues - Pink & Turquoise and Just Us Girls - Dies, Butterfly.  This is the card I came up with using some new to me dies.
The pretty butterfly is from Scrapbook.com Heirloom Butterflies.  I cut the bottom layer from turquoise paper in my stash and the top layer from SU Pretty in Pink.  I added a little color to the middle of the pink layer, then glued it to the turquoise layer after gluing the black body on.  I mounted the butterfly to a panel of SU Smoky Slate embossed with a Paint Texture EF.  I added a thin mat of Basic Gray and them mounted it to my white card base.  The sentiment is from my new Spellbinders Layered Happy Birthday cut from black and turquoise.  I thought about adding some pink enamel dots but left it as is and I like the finished card.

   
Also linking to Darnell's NBUS challenge as this is the first time using these dies.


Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day. 

Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
