More Bright Birthday!

I'm on a patterned paper roll this week!  This card is inspired by the photo challenge at Just Us Girls.  I took my inspiration from all the bright colours including the pink flowers, green boots and blue sky.  The paper is by Reverse Confetti and I'm really loving the bright colours and fun patterns in this set - all very spring-worthy!  I'm also going to play along with the Simon Says Wednesday Anything Goes challenge.

Supplies Used:

Cardstock:  (White) Papertrey Ink

Patterned Paper:  (Paper Bliss 6x6) Reverse Confetti

Stamps:  (Flower from Blooms 'n Buds, Sentiment from Birthday Wishes) Reverse Confetti

Inks:  (VersaFine Onyx Black) Tsukineko, (Party Dress, Lime Rickey) Catherine Pooler

Dies:  (Hemstitch Rectangles) Spellbinders

Other:  (Nuvo Oyster Grey Crystal Drops) Tonic

Monstera Birthday

 

Today's card is for the Just Add Ink photo inspiration challenge and for Darnell's NBUS challenge (since it's the first time I've inked up this Altenew potted plant).  I love the inspiration photo as it could have been taken here where all our houses are built of stone and painted bright and cheerful colours with white roofs.  Over the years our house has gone through a number of colour changes.  Here's a photo of the transition from turquoise to dark blue.  Today the house is sage green.

Cardstock:  (White) Papertrey Ink, (Terracotta)
