Kay's 2026 Birthday Card

 My very dear & sweet sister-friend, Kay, loves pink.

It's her birth stone for the month of October.

I always try to do pink for her cards

and this year I chose the Kaleidoscope collection,

with its beautiful multi-color palette that includes pink.

This is a favorite for me because of the beautiful bright colors!

I've layered various strips from the papers in this collection

to cover the entire front of this 5" x 7" card.

To me, they're really cheerful.

The strips are either straight cut, punched or deco scissor cut.

Here are the strips, starting with the top ones.

These are the bottom ones

The oval die cut has a special message just for Kay

and is adhered flat on the card.

Once again, ReneaBouquets doesn't disappoint

with a gorgeous, colorful butterfly!

I'm so amazed how perfectly this butterfly goes with this card!

The inside of the card already has beautiful printing, 

but I added a couple of rub-ons from the collection.

I added a pink butterfly on the left side

and a hummingbird on a branch on the right side.

Thanks so much for stopping by to see Kay's card.

Wishing her a lovely & very happy birthday!

Have a blessed day!
