Happy Birthday To You

Hello, hello!

I am stopping by with the latest Color Throwdown Challenge! So, do you create with blues? I have to admit that I don't much. Need a little motivation? Here is is:



I masked off the perimeters of my card base, and blended in some Hickory Smoke Distress Ink, fading it upwards. I then stamped two balloons from Winnie and Walter's The Party stamp set, and colored them with the Zig Clean Color Brush Markers. I heat embossed the sentiment onto the card front, using Onyx Black ink, and clear embossing powder. After I cut the balloons out, I stamped the strings, and popped them up with foam tape.


Thanks for joining me today! I hope you decide to play along! Have a great day!
