This is my card for todayÂ’s cc401 challenge. Vicki is our hostess and she chose the colors tempting turquoise, gumball green and pear pizzazz.
Our dessert this week is using washi tape. I didnÂ’t have any and couldnÂ’t get to the craft store to buy some so I am skipping dessert this week.
For my birthday card I used the sentiment from Great Impressions Stamps “birthday wishes” E742. I stamped in turquoise ink.
The card layout is from this weekÂ’s ftl216. However since I struggle with cas cards I just kept adding stuff till it looked like the type of card that I create (lol)!!
My bg paper is SUÂ’s tempting turquoise and I added some gumball green satin stitched ribbon to divide the panels. My ribbon treatment has a gumball green dahlia button.
The rosette is cut in pear pizzazz with a turquoise center and another dahlia button. Punched some butterflies in pear pizzazz to complete my card.
I hope you get time to play along with us this week.

What a vibrant card! I love how you mixed polka dots of the bg paper with the tiny dashed lines of the ribbon...and that rosette is really a fun addition to any card!
