This month’s challenge for the Papertrey Blog Hop was a color challenge. There were six gorgeous color combinations to choose from based on the “Fruits of Summer.” You can see them all here. This color combo screams summer to me, so that’s where I started.
I was hoping to use the new birthday stamps I ordered this month from Papertrey, but for some (yet unknown) reason, the package arrived in Rochester, but was returned to Papertrey Ink before it ever got on a mail truck! I was so disappointed, but turned to the Wonderful Words: Birthday die cut for my card.
I die cut the word in each of the five colors, carefully cut the letters apart, and reassembled the word. “Wishes” was selectively stamped from the Think Big Favorites #16, and I die cut the stars from the Star Gazer dies. It’s a pretty simple card, but I’m happy with it. I’ll be entering it in the Moxie Fab Birthday Card Challenge as well.
You can find lots more colorful inspiration here today.
Karen this is a beautiful card! Love the colors you chose. I hope your stamps get to you soon. My came two days later that stated but I was happy to get them. Funny bet we both have stamps we have yet to use. Right!
WOW this is amazing!!!!!! I love how you cut the different letters from different color cardstock!!!! It’s such a bummer that your package went back to PTI, which is just strange!
Sorry about your package Karen. Love the birthday in different colors.
That’s a lot of cutting! But it really paid off. Beautiful card.

Love the colors and your design is just so clever. Great idea to cut the “birthday” in all those colors and dice it up a bit. So cute!!!
Oh, boy, Karen, how great do those citrus colors look against the kraft?! Thank you for this inspiration; I would not have used them on kraft before I saw this!!
Beautiful..it stood out in the gallery!
Such a pretty card!
Awesome birthday card. Love how you did the “birthday””
