Happy Saturday, and welcome to this month’s Casually Crafting blog hop! The purpose of this blog hop is to share ideas without the use of a die cutting machine! For this month’s challenge, we were to create using at least one of the NEW In Colors. My main color was Pale Papaya!
I made this cute and simple Happy Birthday card using the Watercolor Shapes stamp set (the sentiment is from Garden Birdhouses). I CASEd this directly from the catalog, using different colors for the circles to create a fun background!
For the circles, I used Pale Papaya, Fresh Freesia (another new In Color!), Coastal Cabana, and Granny Apple Green. For the smaller circles, I used an old 1″ Circle Punch to cut them out. You could also fussy cut them if you don’t have the circle punch.
