Looking for inspiration, I once again went to the Annual Catalog. The samples in the current Catalog are amazing. My inspiration for today’s card is on page 53.

Isn’t this a “happy” card? The Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Paper gave me my color inspiration. I stamped lots of “happy” with coordinating colors from the patterned paper. HAPPY and BIRTHDAY are from the Biggest Wish stamp set. This set has been around for a while and is back with us in the current catalog. When I initially saw this set, I wanted to add it to my collection because I didn’t have anyting like it. Interestingly, I’ve used is over and over. A good investment, for sure.

  • My Lemon Lime Twist card base is 4 1/4″ x 11″ and scored at 5 1/2″.
  • I added a Basic White mat layer under the Designer Series Paper. It measures 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″.
