I used the colors Lemon Lime Twist and Dapper Denim along with Whisper White.

The stamp sets I used are Banner Blast (retired) and Big on Birthdays.

Thanks for taking a closer look!

Since we just went to the Schreiner's Iris Gardens in Salem, OR... It was great to get our photos scrapped.  Although, I will need more pages... as there were so many different varieties and colors of Irises.  Such a beautiful display!

I'm excited about this card! It came together so quickly for me -- and that's a plus!  I usually struggle with masculine cards.  I know...this card can be for either gender I bet, but (for me) it's for my nephew.

Well, I really like how this card came out.... and it really fits the person who it was intended for, as she adores 'pink'.  The inside's phrase is 'Today calls for something pink with Sprinkles on top!  Happy Birthday' !
