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.
