Birthday Palooza with My Creative Time!!

Hello, friends and welcome back!!  Today I'm sharing a quick and easy birthday card using products from My Creative Time.  Because these cards are likely the most needed, it's great when they come together quick!!


I used the recently released Celebration Tags Stamp and Die Set. This set is adorable and has got you covered for almost any occasion.  I die cut all my cupcake pieces out of scrap pieces of patterned paper because who doesn't have a load of that on hand?!


Because I struggle with leaving a lot of white space, I used a stencil to create the rays in the background.  Blueprint Sketch Distress Ink matched the blue hearts almost perfectly!  I used the same ink for the sentiment, using my Misti because Distress Inks are really not meant to stamp with so multiple impressions are needed.


I foam mounted all the die cuts, added some sparkle and Glossy Accents to the hearts and couldn't resist adding a few red sequins!  Looking at this card now, I'm getting some strong July 4th vibes...oh how I wish for July!!

That's all for today. I hope you enjoyed!

Thank you so much for dropping by. I love your visits!!!

Laurie
