Every year we have a tradition that Amy chooses some colours for me to make her birthday card with. She surprised me with this year's selection - Rich Razzleberry, Melon Mambo and More Mustard. Quite a mature choice, I thought (and quite a challenge to work with)! And here's what I came up with:
When Amy was a baby, our song for her was "You are my Sunshine", so it was only appropriate that I used the "Array of Sunshine" stamp set for her birthday card. It is a Hostess-only stamp set, and the dotty DSP I have used is also in the Hostess section. The sentiment is from the "Something Sweet" set, and I have hand-cut the curvy banner. Don't you love those Edgelits and matching Embossing folder?
I even made the inside pretty (must have been that mother-guilt!):
She tells me that she had a fabulous day, and loved the goodies I brought back for her from Memento Mall!

Very pretty card with great colour choices!

ReplyDeleteLove this Marelle! I used this stamp set in my swap because I think it has been a little bit overlooked! Your daughter picked a stunning colour choice and you've created something amazing.
