I have been needing to make a birthday card all week and the Inspiration Challenge pushed me to finally get it done! This also works for this week's Ways to Use It Challenge Coloful Complements WT375. Here is my inspiration, Floral Measuring Cups, http://gifts.redenvelope.com/gifts/f...ngpgroup=rhmbs

Beautiful birthday card -- those flowers are gorgeous. My sister has several frangipani trees in her yard, and I've always admired them. Your link didn't seem to work, but I knew what your inspiration was -- because I used the same floral measuring cups!

Kathleen, I so wish I owned this one! I grew up with Frangipanis in my yard, all different varieties. My daddy was in our local Men's Garden Club, always thought that was so unfair, lol! Anyway, he was the recipient of many different cuttings over the years, and had a very large collection. The Frangipani was his favorite tree. He passed away in January and I will always think of him when I see this flower. I purchased some images of this beautiful stamp from someone on eBay and I am on a quest to find one for myself.
