Seize the Birthday Challenge #310 Use your favorite color


JoAnn is our hostess for this challenge and as you see the theme is 
Use your Favorite color. 
My favorite color as long as I remember has been blue, but for this challenge 
I wanted to change it up a bit and I used teal. 

I used a lot of supplies for this card. It is a good thing that I have a lot of supplies! 
Let's start with Pink Fresh Twisted Pattern die. 
I just added some stitched lines on that. 
For the background,  I took out my Paper trey Ink Stencil called Open Your Heart 
and used Distress oxide ink called Speckled Egg for the falling hearts. 
The flowers, sentiment and leaves are from Gina K Designs 
stamp and die called Delicate Flowers. 
My  DieNamics die hearts was used the hold the sentiment. A few added gold pearls form GKD. 
Copic markers are BG72, 74 and 78
along with G 94 and 99


If you are not doing the topping, make sure that it is a birthday theme. 

Here are more inspiration for you on the blog and be sure to give some love to our Surprise Party Guest


Thanks for stopping by and I always appreciate your comments!
