I chose to use two bright primary colors, Real Red and Pacific Point, along with some retired DP and a current set, Delightful Dozen, which is a really great sentiment set!
I was also able to use a couple of fun punched borders that my sweet friend Linda made for me----she just happened to do one of each in the colors I chose, so I pieced them together to make one multi-colored one! I also used the Freshly Made Sketch 22 from this week, too:

Love the bright birthday card! The 1-2-3- border is adorable! And is that a sponge dauber I spy?? Must be Cassidy is going to sponge the edges of her pages to dress them up a bit :)
ReplyDeleteI love your card! Its a great boy card for sure!!! Love all the numbers on the DSP and the border of numbers at the top!
