Karen is our hostess in the Color Challenge this week, and I have donned my sunglasses to make this very bright and cheerful card! The colors are Poppy Parade, Night of Navy, Crushed Curry and Bermuda Bay (my favorite!). The dessert option this week is "feathers," but alas! I could not figure out a way to get any feathers into this card.
I am totally addicted to the Concord & 9th Turnabout stamps. There is a bit of a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, it is quick and easy and fun! I used this week's four colors for the background celebration images, then die cut the circle and banners. Stamped the "best" and "ever" and masked out the word "day" that is actually part of the stamp so I could slide the banner in there.
Thanks for stopping by, and please play along with us this week!

Feathers just wouldn't work on your card........I think it's OK to skip dessert now and then (you, not me!!).
