Hello! Happy 4th of July to those in the USA!
Time for another theme for you at The Flower Challenge! For this month you'll have an opportunity to build up the birthday cards in your stash as you play along.
Make a birthday card featuring flowers. How easy is that! I'm featuring a new-to-me set called Watercolor Flowers by Altenew. For this card I used the stamps, stencil and dies.

Summery colors worked well even though I took creative liberty and made blue leaves. The Altenew colors are Blue Horizon, Maple Yellow, Honey Drizzle, and Green Field. The pinks are Concord & 9th Carnation.
For the sentiment, I used the small font "wishing you a beautiful day" included with the stamp kit. I did however, cut off the word "day" and added a die cut Birthday in black with a shadow layer in white.
I stepped the design up a bit, by partially die cutting the top of the floral spray, centering it on the card front, and adding pink pearls.
There you have it! Wishing you a beautiful day, and heartfelt thanks for your visit. Please be sure to check out the fabulous inspiration from the team!
Be yourself
Have delight in your craft
Make something beautiful!

Cindy, those dainty flowers are so delightful and the bright color combination you used couldn't be more perfect for a bright, summer card! It really brings the "happy" to happy birthday!
You surely did step it up! Love the way you cut the top, as well as how you made the sentiment appear as though it was meant to be. The stenciling looks very natural. Pretty!
