Seize the Birthday #310 - J0Ann - Your Favorite Color


The STB Challenge is hosted by JoAnn and she would like us to use our Favorite Color.  Red and Purple are my favorite colors so I picked purple for my card.  I struggle getting a true red color to turn out.  Come see what all of the other DT's have created to inspire you and join us in the challenge. 

I used a new birthday gift from Col, a stamp kit with stencil, die and stamp set. SSS Butterfly Blossoms with Gina K's ink light, medium and dark lilac.


If you're not a toppings kinda person, well...you can just
stick with our usual "Anything Goes" Birthday!
The choice is yours!


Karen Letchworth  is our Surprise Party Guest for July.


Thanks for stopping by.

Beautiful card, Lin and what a wonderful birthday gift. Love the soft stenciled background too. Love the deep color on the centers of the flowers and butterflies.

I know what you mean about photographing the color purple I often have difficulty as well. But you did great with this card I love the white scalloped background that you set the flowers on. Very pretty.
