The colors....
My card....
I stamped the large circle from Verve's Poppy Birthday stamp set in baked brown sugar, crisp cantaloupe, and pistachio pudding and then, over-stamped the circles/center with not quite navy. Makes a fun-kind of graphic background. Added banners using MFT's flag stax- the colored banners were stamped with a leaf from Verve's Bloom & Grow using versamark for a subtle pattern. The sentiment panel uses an oval nestabilitie, and Verve's Charming Oval and Mini Classy Label dies. Sentiment is from Poppy Birthday.
