Birthday Card ~ Peaceful Celebration (post #1)

My goodness my card collection is sure growing. And I have more to share today.
For my first card I had the hardest time deciding on the design paper combination I wanted to use.
I was in the mood for a different card design type so this is what I came up with.
I used this sea scene stamp that I have had for years and come back to on occasion.

*Card base 5.5 x 4.25 in.

*Card front is made up of alternating torn solid and design papers.

*Sentiment is made using two Verve Stamps sets called Happy Thoughts and So Happy
*Sentiment is stamped on the Scroll Die from Verve Stamps
*Sea scene stamp from my stash and does not have a brand name on it.
*Design paper is from the Bo Bunny Camp a lot paper pad.
*Cording is from my stash.
May your day always be filled with love.
Hugs,
D~
