Bright and Cheery Birthday Card


 As promised, here is more of that awesome Echo Park paper with the green/blue/red color scheme.  The paper strips took a little bit of math (and some trimming to perfect it), but otherwise a very simple card!  It is nice and flat for mailing but so bright and cheery!  I love the hexagons - a hot trend right now.


For the sentiment strip, I hand cut the banner edge, and added a few rhinestones on the other side.



~Supplies~
Stamps:  Everyday Button Bits (Papertrey Ink)
Ink:  Gray (Studio G)
Paper:  Bermuda Bay and Certainly Celery (Stampin' Up!); Rustic White (PTI); So Happy Together (Echo Park)
Accessories:  Rhinestones
