Happy Birthday Card ~ Color Dare #585

 Are you ready to play some Tic Tac Toe....Color Dare Style?  Well here you go! First pick your colors by row, column or diagonal. After that if you want to use some of the other colors that's fine. You can even use them all! What you can't do is add any extra colors not shown. Please see the graphic for the fine print rules.

We reference Close To My Heart colors but you can use any brand you have as long as you can make a very close match. Kind of close doesn't count. Make any paper craft you like. When you're ready click here to go directly to Color Dare. #585.

I started with the middle column of colors: Mink, Limeade and Journey. Then I added Peach, Harbour and a touch of Gold with the ribbon. 

The design comes from our How-to Guide: Make It from Your Heart. All the cutting and placement measurements are right there for you, plus some samples!  Using Blending Brushes I added color to our Irresistible cardstock. What fun it is to see the pattern come alive before your eyes! 

The I added the balloons in 3 colors: Harbour, Mink and Peach.  TIP: I only wanted the "hello" on one balloon so I turned the stamp over and used the back to stamp the other 2 balloons!

Adding the ribbon and sequins was all it needed to finish it off. Simple and easy thanks to the How-to Guide! See below for a list of products used for this card.

  2. That irresistable paper has so much flexibility, nice choice of colors for background and blending the colors is so pretty. Great idea using your balloon for sentiment. It's such a happy card.
