Celebrate - It's Your Day! (CD #660)




It's time for another Color Dare Challenge! The colors on the board are so bright and bold. This is biweekly Challenge #660, running through Thursday, July 24, 2025.


These pretty colors were pointing me in the direction of flowers, lots of flowers, and as I explored my paper stash, I wanted something more contemporary yet still festive. So, after cutting a few strips of cardstock and adhering them to a small black panel, I found them to be satisfactory for a festive card.

Attaching the white panel to a black card base, I elected to leave it without texture, preferring the contrast of the bright white. After adding a few strips directly to the white background, the cluster of strips was adhered using foam tape. A few shiny black gems were added, and the sentiment was stamped directly onto the card front.

The inside of the card was lined with a panel of white, decorated with a few strips and stamped, "Today is YOUR Day!"

The Design Team invites you to participate in this color challenge HERE.
