Papertrey Ink July Blog Hop Challenge

It's time for Papertrey Ink's Monthly Blog Hop!  I am so excited that I was able to get my card made in time!

This month's challenge was to design a card based on this inspirational photo:
I was inspired by the beautiful colors here, it reminded me of Ocean Tides . . . . so here is my card!

Sending Birthday Wishes
Stamps:  Everyday Button Bits (PTI)
Ink:  Tuxedo Black (Memento)
Patterned Paper:  Stampin Up
Cardstock:  Ocean Tides, Stamper's Select White (PTI); Pumpkin Spice (Gina K Designs)
Accessories:  Ribbon, Ocean Tides and Melon Berry Ribbon (PTI); Orange Button (Michaels), Rhinestones (Imaginisce)

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I can't wait to see what everyone else has created!  Have a wonderful week!
