Day 8 of 31 Days of Handmade Cards

"Welcome to Day 8 of 31 Days of Handmade Cards! Am I the only one that always needs more birthday cards? We give about 40 handmade birthday cards a year to family and close friends. All original handmade cards with no repeats so I am always creating new designs to fill my card stash. I love using the rainbow to create birthday cards. Rainbows are bright and happy, which is perfect for birthday cards. You can change it to glittered paper or metallic paper or shades of your favorite color. Use what you have on hand or a color combination that is new to you."
