Birthday Jubilee

 Hello and welcome back! Here's my second card for today!

This card was inspired by the color challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments.


I don't think I would have come up with this color combination on my own, so it was a bit challenging. I pulled out the Birthday Jubilee stamp set and matching dies, since I've been wanting to use them. When I started putting the elements together, I felt like the colored die-cuts were being overpowered by the die-cut banners, so I added a layer of vellum in between to soften the background. Now the flowers can pop!



I also used an old trick on the punched sentiment by using the brush end of a Stampin' Write marker around the edge of the punched piece to give it a little definition.

Thanks for stopping by, and happy stamping!
