I Smell a Birthday - CD #544 "Triple Play"

Here is my DT card for ColorMyHeart Color Dare #544 "Triple Play" combined with the Try Stampin' on Tuesday Sketch Challenge #601 with optional twist to use pastel colors.  The only pastel in this color challenge was pink so I used that to border each panel and the flowers.  

 

I was determined to use the Stamp of the Month "Little Stinkers" as a sneak peek for the month of May. Decided to stamp and mask one of the stinkers on the tree stump, added florals and leaves to each side to take on the edge of the circle image in the sketch, colored with copic sketch pens and cut frame using a circular decorative edge.  

Could not find patterned papers using these colors so resorted to cardstock for my two panels and backed them both with a little pink.  Cut another circular frame and off set the one with the image to pull in a little more pink. Used a gelly roll white pen to hightlight the eyes and dotted the centers of each flower. Had thought about stamping something on the rosemary cardstock but I was happy with the clean look. Finished it off with a stitched arrow adhered with 3D thin foam tape to finish the similarity of the sketch.  

On the inside of the card stamped a few florals and leaves in the bottom right-hand corner.  

This 2nd card was my experimental masking and color choices for the ColorMyHeart Color Dare Challenge #544 "Triple Play". Rather than throw in my stash I decided to use this with another sketch at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #520. The Harbour and Rosemary cardstock were both adhered to Peach for a border, cut a square in a Mix-Up design paper for the square and cut the scalloped frame around my image. Ferns were cut using Harbour and Rosemary cardstock to place around the image. 

On the inside flowers were stamped and colored along the right-hand side border.
