Fairy Sweet Birthday Wishes

This fortnight's challenge at Top Tip Tuesday is Stars & Stripes.  I decided to go for non-traditional stars and stripes, and opted for softer colours, with pink, aqua and brown.

My pretty stripy papers are from Wild Rose Studio and the stars are buttons that I've had for ages.

The sketch is actually one from a challenge that ended a couple of weeks ago, but I like it so much, you may have noticed that I have been using it on a few cards even since the challenge ended !!!

Netty, your Happy Birthday card is darling! I love how beautifully you colorize images on your cards! This little angel "bee" is so cute! Your choice of background papers is good, too. And the little ribbon and little patchwork stars are such a cute embellishment! Thanks for sharing your beautiful cards with us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy
