Colorsplash #3: Wishing you the happiest of birthdays.

I took part in a Colorsplash Challenge which required the use of 4 colors: Poppy Parade, Flirty Flamingo, Balmy Blue and Night of Navy. Those colors and a new stamp set led me to this fun birthday card. Loving how the design shows off the texture of the embossing done to the Balmy Blue cardstock. #colorsplash3

I always try to decorate the inside of my card to coordinate with the cover. This is also a great way to use up your designer paper. Let’s not hoard it but use it…to make room for the new paper when it comes out.

I also find another way to use up the extra paper is to decorate the envelope. Remember, no naked envelopes!
