This Birthday card I chose Charcoal, Pewter, Pebble and Juniper inks with the border from the stamp set, Basic fundamentals paper pack(3353), grey gems(Z3089) and the stamps I received from Convention this year.

This Birthday card is made with Sapphire and Crystal Blue Exclusive Inks and Cardstock, White Daisy Cardstock, Finding the Words stamp set(retired) and the new Colourblock Alphabet(D1729)
