MOJO261 with Color Throwdown CTD212

Yet another wonderful sketch from Mojo Monday MOJO261,

played along with Color Throwdown CTD212 on my first attempt with 5 colors.

Made this card with a slight twist.  Embossed Swiss Dots on white card.
Die cut the red card with ...

For the want of Spellbinders Classic Circles, I made do with Scalloped Circles instead.
Cut a banner using patterned paper from Echo Park Everyday Eclectic.
Tied the ribbon into a bow.
Placed the grey scalloped circle and mounted the butterfly.
Embellished with pearls.
Sentiment is from Mrs Grossman's.

Have a Blessed and Happy Birthday!

Birthday Card Freshly Made

Freshly Made Sketches always have very nice layouts which are quite elegant in a simple way.

I made this card following their sketch for the week FMS51.

The colors follow Stampin' Royalty's Challenge #140.

Took this photo on the balcony this morning just after 7.

The Sizzix polka dot embossing is done on DCWV cardstock.

Patterned paper in suede and white is from Echo Park Everyday Eclectic.

Suede colored scalloped square is cut with Spellbinders on the Cuttlebug.

Pool party colored paper is a piece of parchment paper,

embellished with a strip of floral ribbon.

The delightful owl stamp is from Micia.

The Happy Birthday sentiment is Mrs Grossman's Stickers.
