My goal today was to make a card for my Mother's birthday and this Blue and Red Birthday Card is what I made for her. Blue is her favorite color and this red flower has been sitting on my craft desk just waiting to be used. The patterned papers are from the Americana paper pad by Pebbles (2013). I love how the little flowers have red centers, it really helped to tie everything together. To finish the card I added some twine and a butterfly charm. The finished size is 4.50" x 6.25". Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your day.
This Blue and Red Birthday Card is entered into the following challenges:
- Watercolor Wednesday: Anything Goes
- Pattie's Creations: Birthdays
- Crafty Gals Corner: Anything Goes
- Craftaholics R Us: Anything Goes
- Retarte: Anything Goes
