Hello crafty friends! I'm back today with our monthly Stamping Symphony blog hop, and am delighted to share a sweet birthday card with you. This month our theme is Sale-a-bration and the Jan-June Mini Catalogue!
All measurements are given in my video, which is further down in this post).
Do you recognize the paper I used? It's Flower & Field DSP from Sale-a-bration. So pretty with florals on one side of the paper and lovely patterns on the other!
The contrast of the white against the Basic Black & Just Jade paper gives a clean crisp look to the card. You can earn this paper FREE during Sale-a-bration! If you wish to make a purchase, you can click on the picture links at the bottom of this post to shop with me!
FLOWER & FIELD DESIGNER SERIES PAPER
Do you heat emboss? If not, give it a try! Add that extra WOW to your cards! This greeting embossed beautifully! It's from the Approaching Perfection FREE Sale-a-bration stamp set!
I heat embossed this greeting in Just Jade....say what!?!?! We don't have Just Jade embossing powder.
Here's how I did it: Using my Stamparatus, I inked up the greeting in Just Jade, cleaned the stamp in place, then stamped again using Versamark. Next, I sprinkled Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder, tapped off the extra, and used my Heat Tool. I wish you could see the shine on the greeting!
To cut the greeting using one of the Stitched So Sweetly dies. I then cut the vellum piece using a Layering Circle die. I love how the vellum adds interest to the card!
APPROACHING PERFECTION STAMP SET
These balloons are so adorable! I coloured them using my Just Jade Stampin' Blends, then added Wink of Stella! Those itsy bitsy bows were made using the Whisper White twine from the Snail Mail Twine Combo Pack and are held on using 1/2 of a glue dot (yup...I did cut glue dots in half!)

I'm all for visual interest on cards, and that being the case, I used one of my Curvy Dies to change the card front. It really adds a flow and softness to the card!

Happy Monday my crafty friends! Today I'm sharing 4 cards that all use the adorable Darling Donkeys stamp set, which is a freebie from Sale-a-bration! On my Tues@8pm video, I'll be making one of these cards - hmmm....I wonder which one!
This is also our Positive Inkers Global Design Team Blog Hop and the theme is Sale-a-bration products!
This little guy is so happy that it's you birthday! He's stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and coloured using Stampin' Blends: Ivory, and Rococo Rose. The balloon image is from another free Sale-a-bration set - Approaching Perfection. I used Wink of Stella to add a bit of sparkle to everything in Rococo Rose, and even coloured the white twine from the Snail Mail combo pack in Rococo Rose.
Punch for sentiment: Banner Triple
Who doesn't love a whimsical card!! Stamped the same as the 1st card, but this time I used Wink of Stella to highlight one of the donkeys, plus I splattered Wink of Stella on the card. It's really sparkly! The entire layer is popped up on Dimensionals.
Punch for sentiment: Banner Triple

This little cutie pie is so adorable! Coloured like the other cards, and with Wink of Stella highlights on the Rococo Rose parts, plus the tuft of hair, the tail and feet. The sentiment is from Itty Bitty Greetings.
