Happy Birthday with Pale Papaya and Expressions In Ink Designer Series Paper

I absolutely love the way this Happy Birthday card came out.  The Pale Papaya Cardstock makes the flowers from the Expressions In Ink Designer Series Paper pop.  I used the Stitched Greenery Die on the White Cardstock...it has quickly become one of my new favorite dies.  It's a die, but it embossed the paper with these beautiful stitched leaves.

Card Details:

• Pale Papaya Cardstock:  4 1/4" x 11", scored at 5 1/2"
• White Cardstock layer:  5 1/4" x 4" - embossed with Stitched Greenery Die
• Expressions In Ink DSP strip:  4" x 2"
• The "Happy Birthday" sentiment is from the Artistically Inked Stamp Set.  I cut the greeting into 2 pieces to allow more flexibility
