Glad You Were Born - Simon Says Stamp Be Creative Release

Good morning! I'm dropping by to share another card using the Be Creative Release from Simon Says Stamp! Lots of fun items in this release - particularly exciting for me were a few birthday sets, and since that is the card I use and am asked for the most, I was so happy to be able to create some cards to build my stash! Today I'm still using the same two sets as the first card I shared a few days ago, but this time with a totally different look!


This time, I stamped the Bunch of Balloons cling background stamp on Peacock cardstock, and heat embossed in white to create a crisp background.


I felt like it just didn't pop enough, so I grabbed a Copic marker in a slightly darker shade than the cardstock, and added a simple outline to just 3 of the balloons and their strings. This just helped highlight those ones so well!


I trimmed the panel down to almost an A2 card panel, taking a bit extra off one side, and mounting it on my white cardbase allowing the extra white on the right to show. Just a little bit of extra interest!


I stamped the same sentiment I used before, but this time in black on white cardstock, and trimmed it into a thin strip to pop up with foam adhesive on the background. Then finished off with a few of the flat back sequins from the new Lucky Charm Sequin mix!


Product links are all below - including affiliate links where possible, which simply means if you use one of the links below that I receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!!!
