Lolly & Sand: Stampin' Up! You're a Peach Birthday Card & Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to our monthly Stamping Symphony Blog Hop! This month our theme is 'Summer with Designer Series Paper.' We hope you're inspired by our projects! We love hearing from you so don't forget to leave comments! At the end of this post you'll find links to the rest of the blogs in the hop!

Creating whimsical visuals with the Basic Borders Dies is super easy and I'll show you how in my video (to be posted later this evening).

I have to say, I absolutely LOVE the You're a Peach DSP for the summery patterns and colours! This paper makes me so happy!!

Speaking of happy, I did an hombre look for the greeting and boy was it easy! I used the Biggest Wish stamp set and cut the greeting using one of the Smooth Sailing dies. Be sure to check back to see my video tutorial later this evening on how I achieved the look.

Have you seen the Basic Border dies in the Annual Catalogue? Love the scallops and stitching and how unique my card looks! A few Genial Gems for the right amount of sparkle and we're almost done!

By using vellum on the leaves rather than cardstock keeps the card looking light and bright! I noticed the glue dot under the leaf while writing this post. Oops!

Another hombre greeting, vellum leaf and the cut-away piece of DSP from the front of the card. A lovely finishing touch for this special birthday card!
