So many exciting items in our new Sale-A-Bration catalog with Stampin’Up it was hard to decide what I would start with, however the Pandas won! I love them and could not wait to start making some cards so I made three!
I made the standard size card, 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 and cut the bottom of the card off to split the card and used the Foil Frenzy DSP paper. I also used the Balloon Celebration stamp set using the string stamp to stamp with and fussy cut out the balloons. I course I wanted them to pop so I used my wink of Stella on the colors to add some bling. A cute and simple card to make for that someones special birthday.
The second card I used another color palate from the Foil Frenzy DSP and made another cute card for either a male or female Birthday. I always put an image inside my cards, just a personal preference but I like how it comes out. Colors were Bermuda Bay on the card stock and I also used our new Stampin Blends to color the hats.
The third and last card was an ideas I saw on a post and loved it. I changed up a few things on the card to make it my own but loved using the Woodland Embossing folder using the Stampin’ Blends coloring the trees using the Crumb Cake light and dark. I fussy cut the Pandas and also colored with my Blends the balloon with Bermuda Bay light and dark and party hat with Rich Razzleberry light and dark. I finished both the hat and balloon with my Wink of Stella, have to have my bling!
