Hi everyone! This is my first time participating in MFT's Color Challenge and this one was so fun, involving some of my favorite colors!
When I look at these colors I think of two words....Happy......and Birthday! So I decided to use a new stamp set that I just got in the mail today to whip up a birthday card. I started by diecutting a couple of the balloons out of the cardbase and inset them by raising the base up with dimensional tape. I thought it added a little more interest to the card. I stamped the fun confetti background with some random stamps from a couple stamp sets.
For this card I used the following supplies from:
Celebrate Big stamp set
Party Balloons stamp set
Party Balloons dies
Balloon Strings die
Stitched Mats; Rectangles
Confetti stamp set
Hero Arts Shadow Ink: Pale Tomato, Tide Pool, Butter Bar and Green Hills.
Unfortunately I don't have these particular ink colors yet so I had to wing it as close as I could using some of my Hero Arts Shadow Inks. I really want to say though, I am so happy with my new Party Balloons stamp and die sets from My Favorite Things. I was pleasangly surprised to see how big that stamp set is. You really get a lot of bang for your buck! The actual stamps come on an
8"x 6" sheet and the largest balloons are 2" tall. I don't think I've ever bought a stamp set that was so big. I took this picture just to show you. The card I made is A2 size (4.25 x 5.5"). It looks little next to that big set of stamps. I really love it so much and I just know I'll be using it a lot for my birthday cards.
Thanks for stopping by!
