Welcome to our second challenge this month at STB
The talented Colleen wants us to use candles on our cards. Do you ever have subjects that for some reason you can't make a decent card from it. Well, birds are one for me and also candles. But this is a little bit different from all the other cute cards that people make with candles. I do like how this turned out.
Come join us in the fun. The DT's have lots of great inspiration for you.
If you're not a toppings kinda person, well...you can just
stick with our usual "Anything Goes" Birthday!

Thanks for stopping by.
The first thing that I was impressed with is the colors that you used for this card. Next, I really wanted to reach out and spin the circle with the candle in it. It really got my attention.
ReplyDeleteThe color scheme really caught my eye on this one, and I love the circles of candles, hearts, stitches and words. Very pleasing to the eye. I am happy to join the team as Surprise Guest. Thanks so much for having me.
ReplyDeleteLots of interest on this card! It came together beautifully
ReplyDeleteLin, the colors were the first thing that grabbed my attention when you showed it to me in person! And I love all the interest with the confetti in the background. lOVELY CARD MY FRIEND!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who struggles with candles Lin, but you sure wouldn't know it with this card...love it!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteFabulous colours Lin! What a fun card with all the birthday confetti in the background and your sweet cupcake and candles. I'm with you, I have trouble with certain things on cards too ... candles being one. :) xx
ReplyDeleteI don't love candles either, Shhhhh! You pulled it off perfectly, Lin. The background looks like paper.
ReplyDeleteI too love your color combo Lin. I had to take a closer look at the circle of candles around the cute cupcake. Great card.

ReplyDeleteI love the soft colors in your card, Linda, and also the neat design. The background is looking like a pattern paper! Awesome job with this one (even though you claim otherwise!!)
