Happiest Birthday Wishes: Sketch Challenge

Happy Sunday friends!  What another great weekend, not only did we have beautiful weather but we had lots of fun family activities and today I spent the day with a friend at a local vendor fair.  I decided to showcase two retiring items for this weeks Stamping 411 challenge.  I used the Berry Blossoms DSP (retiring) and drew all the colors (Calypso Coral, Lucky Limeaid, and Wisteria Wonder).  I also used a striped embossing folder for the back ground.  The stamped greeting is from the Happiest Birthday Wishes Hostess stamp set (retiring) and I colored it in with Stampin' Write markers.  The final touch was to tie a double bow with the Wisteria Wonder 3/8" ruffled ribbon and an In Color Designer Printed brad for the center. 

Now check out the sketch we were provided.  Nice and simple card and oh so fun and cheery.  I hope you enjoyed the card this week and just think, we just have five days before the holiday weekend (I can't wait).
Happy stamping,

Diana
