Hi, everyone! Thanks to a fantastic Sketch Challenge layout and an awesome Color Challenge (cantaloupe, coral, and saffron) this week, I was able to easily put together this birthday card for my sister. The saffron and cantaloupe led me right to the 'Sweet As Perfume' set from Our Daily Bread designs since most of the Plumeria (or Frangipani) blossoms I saw in Hawaii looked just like this (and smelled like heaven!!) The white panels (cut out with the ODBD Custom Pierced Rectangles and ODBD Custom Pierced Squares Dies) were sponged in saffron and cantaloupe, plus the rectangle background was stamped with the image in saffron. The sentiment is also from 'Sweet As Perfume' but I cut it apart to remove the word 'friends' and add the banner instead. The letters were stamped with the 'Pennant Swag Alphabet'; the pennant frame was cut out with the ODBD Custom Pennant Swag Die. Since this card makes me long for another trip to Hawaii, I will submit it to this month's Fan Club Central Theme Challenge (This Land Is My Land). I will also add this to the link up at the ODBD Blog...this month's challenge is 'Anything That Grows with ODBD'. Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!

Oh, wow, wow, Angie! This is GORGEOUS, and I so love how you've used this sentiment! It's so true (for the most part), and I so love my sisters, especially the one closest to my age who is always there for me! I love this set and just love how you've used this great layout! And, wow, do I love the colors and how you've used this beautiful flower to make a soft and subtle background! Stunningly made! Love it all, my friend! Big hugs!
