May is a totally huge birthday month for me. Probably my biggest month of the year! I know so many people who are celebrating their special occasion, that it's kept me busy churning out cards and today I'd like to share three of them with you.
This is a Peek-A-Boo Flip Top card in Bermuda Bay, Calypso Coral and Whisper White card stocks. The DSP that you can just barely see is from the new Annual Catalogue, and I know it's one that you're going to want to own.
My second birthday card uses a fun combination of Watermelon Wonder and Cucumber Crush two of the 2015-2016 In Colours paired with Bermuda Bay card stock. Wow what a happy colour combo! You'll be seeing them a lot as summer approaches and the new catalogue season gets under way!
This is a shaker card that I made using a new-to-me technique with fun foam. I'm currently writing a tutorial on this technique and for the Peek A Boo Flip Card and plan to post these tutorials in early June. I hope you'll come back to check them out.
Once again I used the Celebrate Today stamp set, the Balloon Frame Lit dies and that oh so special DSP from the 2015-2016 Annual Catalogue. You can save 15% on the dies and stamp set by purchasing them as a bundle.
My third and final card was once again made with the Celebrate Today stamp set and is a warm mix of Cantaloupe Crisp, Island Indigo and Hello Honey card stocks and inks. I think you're going to like this one too! This card design could easily sub for a Grad Congratulations card and the colours could be changed up to reflect the school of the recipient..... just a thought!
And that's my three birthday designs made with the Celebrate Today and Balloon Framelit Dies. I hope you enjoyed this post and will return in June to see the tutorials.
Happy Stamping!

| The balloon is cut out with the Balloon Framelits which gives a perfect finish every time. I just love these framelits! |

| The Happy Birthday sentiment that's stamped in Calypso Coral ink is from the Celebrate Today stamp set. This perfect 17 piece photopolymer stamp set has lots of sentiments and balloon images as you'll see in my next cards. |
