I made this card with my newly won stamps from Jennifer at Stamps and Smiles. I won "Carl the Cupcake" during Stamps and Smiles last blog hop. This is my very first card with "Carl" and I am so happy with how well he stamped!! I decided to use the colours from the Colour Throwdown...so much fun and really out of my comfort zone. I actually just ordered green paper!! I am trying to use new colours. I stamped Carl's Birthday hat on the side circles and coloured them in with the colours from the colour challenge which were Pink Passion, Green Galore and Chocolate. I added a little chocolate satin bow to the side of the card. Using Green Galore as the card face was hard for me to do. I usually use white but I had to challenge myself to move out of my comfort zone!! Smiles,
Lesley :)
