The first card will head off to SSS Wednesday Challenge and Color Throwdown.
I think this birthday card turned out lovely in this color palette:
I found various circle stamps in my stash and used ME pink and red inks, and the green is a DO in pistachio. I cut the SC sentiment twice; once in black and once in mint and off set them slightly. A few blings in the same colors finishes it off nicely. Looks happy to me.
The next card is off to play at Poppy Stamps Challenge, Happy Little Stampers April CAS Challenge, and the Stamping For Autism Awareness Blog Hop. Do head over to Veronica's blog to learn about how Autism has impacted her life, and join in by making a card, too.
The blue in the photo is in the teal family, and the darn thing photographed more in the green range as opposed to the blue.
I've framed my card with a chevron paper from LF. The giraffes are from Poppystamps, and I just love them! I upcycled a chevron bag and used it behind the giraffe cuts. An old Syzzix label die with a PTI sentiment and done! An EZPZ, CAS card. Hope to get the chance to visit your blogs a bit later today, too. Have a great weekend, and as always...

Delightful cards! I am in love with those giraffes! They look fabulous with the chevron bag paper underneath!
oh these are both awesome....love those polkas and perfect colors.
Those giraffes!
Two fun cards to make and receive, Bevie! I just LOVE the pink champagnish bubbles on your shadowed celebration card! And filling the negative with the upcycled bag was a genius way to bring the adorable giraffes to life! It's a lovely design with the chevron frame and so perfect for the Hop!! Miss you! Hugs, Darnell
ooh, those chevron giraffes just make my heart melt.... LOVE!
Pink, red and green polka dots are cause for celebration, Bev. Using that bag for the giraffes was genius. They are so stately with those long chevron necks.
How delightful your pretty red, pink and mint bubbles...I mean, circles...are, my friend! Celebration, indeed! As for your giraffes, sporting their wonderfully stylish chevrons...completely smitten! AND, because you've 'accentuated the negative', you should round up these long-necked, graceful lovelies and wander them over to Cards in Envy for their Get Negative Challenge (http://cardsinenvy.blogspot.ca/2018/04/get-negative-card-challenge.html). The teal paper is positively scrumptious!
Hope you're doing well! We need a catch up; I'll be in touch!
Hugs and love and misses~c
Great birthday cards! Love your dotted card--it's fun and festive like confetti! Thanks for joining us for this week's Color Throwdown!
Oh, Bev, those bubbles of colour are so much fun ... bright, happy, whimsical, playful ... love the delicious freshness! Now, those giraffes ... sooooo clever ... brilliant idea for the chevron backing ... makes those lovely long necks seem even longer! I see a delicious teal blue in your pp rather than green ... and it's gorgeous! Missing you, my sweet friend ... and thinking of you. Big hugs & bisous, Anita :)
Love your cards, what a great colour combo in the first
