When the lovely color Mint Macaron retires in June, I will really miss it. I seem to be using a lot of it in several different ways.

This card has a base of Mint Macaron, with a mat of Designer Series Paper with diagonal stripes from It’s My Party Designer Series Paper Pack.  The same Designer Paper pack also has the balloon paper, which is a 3-1/4 x 3-1/4″ square cut to make the birthday “present.”  
Wrap around the “present” some 1/8″ Taffeta ribbon in Melon Mambo, add the Melon Mambo starburst topper from the Starburst Blast Framelits that coordinate with the Birthday Blast stamp set and you have a wonderful birthday treat for a card.

When the Starburst is die cut, there are 5 stars that drop out.  Don’t throw those out. They can be used to decorate the inside of your card.

Thanks for looking,

Carole
