Birthday Wishes- PP43 & CCMC146

Hi Stampers!
I decided to create a card with the colors from this week’s The Paper Players PP43 Clean and Simple Sketch  Challenge (see http://thepaperplayers.blogspot.com/ ) and the CCMC146 Color Challenge from Create with Connie and Mary (see http://www.createwithconnieandmary.com/ ). 

All of the Design Team projects at both sites along with the other entries are so wonderful, if you have time to visit, you won’t be disappointed!
To create this card:
Use the 2 ½” XL Circle Punch along with the 1 3/4" Scallop Circle and 2 ¼” XL Scallop Punch to create the flowers using the rolled flower technique.
Use the Big Shot to emboss a piece of Whisper White and Pacific Point with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.    
Punch the edge of the Whisper White band with the Scallop Eyelet Punch and crimp with the Crimper Tool. 
Attach the Pumpkin Pie DSP and the Whisper White Scrap across the center. Stamp the sentiment with Pacific Point and punch out with the Large Oval Punch.  Punch additional pieces layers of Real Red and Pacific Point with the XL Decorative Label Punch. 
Attach the flowers with glue dots to finish off the card. 
Stamp Sets:  Sincere Sentiments
Ink: Pacific Point
Cardstock: Whisper White, Pacific Point, Pumpkin Pie, Real Red  

Accessories:  Big Shot, Square Lattice EF, Punches- Eyelet Border, 2 ½” XL Circle, 1 3/4" Scallop, 2 3/8" Scallop, Scallop Oval XL and XL Decorative

Thank you for stopping by- I hope all of you are having a blessed Easter week!
