Embellish Magazine Color Challenge: Celebrate Birthdays

I am back to do another color challenge with Embellish Magazine. Loving the colors for this one and it is so wide open for what you can create. A lot of freedom for this challenge, loving it.

While I was looking through my stash for birthday themed products, I came across this cupcake from EKSuccess and I was so happy it fit into the color scheme. I knew right away it was going on my card and I just needed to come up with a few other elements to fill the card. So I got out my handy dandy border punch and started punching away, a girl can always count on her punches.



In the end, I loved the look of all the colors together. Such vibrant, rich colors and so fitting for a birthday card. Thanks for another great challenge.
Supplies:
cardstock, ribbon, stamp - Papertrey Ink
cupcake sticker - EKSuccess
circle, scalloped circle, and border punch - EKSuccess
pearls - Hero Arts
ink - Versamark
