Thrilling Thursday

Hello everyone. California you did not let us down! today's drive was spectacular! Sunny with n almost cloudless ski.   Along the way I saw oranges hanging from trees, and other beautiful fruit trees in the beginning of the blossoming stages, oh so pretty! Lots of farmland, mountains, cattle, and miles of road. I love you California! Thank you for your warm and welcoming hospitality!!

Today I would like to share a  very bright colorful birthday card with you.  I made this card with papers from a 180 paper pack from Joanne's fabrics. I am so sorry, I do not remember the name of the pack.  I used a sketch from mojomonday  . I so appreciate the many blogspot contributers who offer me sketches each week.  I  gain so much inspiration from a simple sketch. As you can see from the papers, they are all alike, just different colors. I have added a unique simple antique plastic button with raffia, and outlined each colored piece with faux stitching.  I choose a cute little  Birthday sentiment stamp from an Inkadinkado set of stamps that I found at Walmart.  I love both the simplicity, and the color of this card.  I hope you will enjoy it too.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:
