Quick birthday card

Here's a quick card I made with the new Celebrations Papercraft Kit! Instead of using the preprinted square shape, I cut out the balloon panel with a Spellbinders die, then sponged the shape and added color to the balloons with markers. I used Peel-off stickers to edge the card.
Be looking for more samples using the Celebrations set throughout the month from our Design Team!

All that glitters........

The new Gold and Silver Flower Soft is super sparkly and dimensional, chunky and glittery - very fun stuff! In digging through my box of Christmas stamps, I found this stamp (Camel and King), by Stamping Sensations - part of a nativity set I picked up as a full sheet at a convention several years ago.

The image is watercolored using reinkers, Derwent watercolor pencils, and an Inktense pencil as well. I used some small gold rhinestones and gold Peel-Offs as embellishments too. There is also Ocean Ultrafine Flower Soft on the collar of the king's robe. The background ink is Adirondack Denim - its color components tend to separate when oversaturated with water, which I think is sort of cool. See those couple areas of purple?

In the close-up you can see the gold trim better...

Hello there! 

Today I'm going to show you a fun (and very easy) way to make Flower Soft borders. 

 I applied 1/4′ Score Tape (high tack tape) along the sides of my card and applied Summer Mix Flower Soft to make fuzzy borders. When adding flower soft to adhesive tape you'll need to press it into the tape to get it to stick well. Once it is adhered it sticks very well. I also added a Gold Peel off sticker to each edge. Flower Soft carries a large line of these stickers. They are so easy and fun to work with.

Here is a closer look:

 Stamps: M-032 Baby Shower - High Hopes Rubber Stamps
Paper: Bazzill
Ink: Memento (Tuxedo Black), Ranger Distress

Accessories: Copic markers, sponge, 1/4 Score Tape, Simmer Mix Flower Soft, Gold Peel Off stickers (Flower soft) Nestabilities (Spellbinders),  Scrapbook Adhesives from 3L

Have a great day!!!
