Popping in today with a card that I made yesterday to send to a friend for their upcoming birthday. - No special challenge for this one, just a spontaneous creation.
I had bought this super cool piece of paper at JoAnn's (Damask Love - Sunshine Blvd) and want to use it for a card.
I have a friend that loves going to Hawaii and thought she would enjoy a tropical themed birthday card. I put this together super quick yesterday since I wanted to get it off in the mail and had to have it to ready to mail by 2:00 to go out in the mail on time.
I spent about 1/2 hour looking for that Happy Birthday stamp, it's one of my old favorites and apparently one of my mom's as well since after moving a bunch of boxes to look in her stamping stuff I found it.
The card went together quickly after that. I used my Momenta Die set that was used on (this card)
So here are the colors and details:
Card Stock: Pacific Point, Poppy Parade, Granny Apple Green, Pool Party and Whisper White (*retired)
The sentiment was stamped with Pacific Point ink. - I added some green bakers twine that I purchased at the dollar store and a tiny white pearl to complete the card. Also circle dies and foam mounting tape.
That's it for today...now off to stamp for one of the current challenges.
Great looking card. I like the tropical feel of it.

OMGosh, I'm a color junkie so I'm loving this card, Ida! Cool paper, dies and design, and I love the sentiment font. I can see why it's a favorite.
