I love today’s color challenge – bright colors speak to me and make me happy!
I grabbed the Beach Day bundle and our three colors for this week’s color challenge!
Highland Heather, Summer Splash and Shy Shamrock!
I store my cardstock in plastic sleeves from Stampin’ Storage I have two sleeves for each color one is top loaded for my paper scraps and one is side loaded for my 8 1/2″ x 11″ cardstock!
I grabbed my folders and pulled out 1/8″ strips that I had saved from another project!

Using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink I stamped the paddle board over the strips of cardstock.
I fussy cut the boards out of the stripped cardstock.

Stamp the Happy Birthday sentiment onto Basic White cardstock with Summer Splash ink. Fussy cut the words out and pop it up onto Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I added In Color Shimmer Gems in Summer Splash color around the sentiment piece.
I then added the Summer Splash Bordered Ribbon and tied it in a knot at the top score line of the card base.
I decided I wanted a little more color to the mix and stamped three beach balls in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored them in Highland Heather and Summer Splash Light Stampin’ Blends markers. I die cut them out and added them behind the sand castle and popped up in front of the two palm trees.
I think that added just the right touch of extra color to the card!
