Balloon Birthday Card using Super Duper
I fell in love with the Super Duper stamp set as soon as I saw in the new seasonal catalogue. I just loved the graphic balloons and knew I could get a great image with just one stamp but this is the first chance I have had to play and share this set with you. Balloons = Birthday so it was an easy choice for me!
I simply stamped the background using 4 colours of ink and the two balloon stamps. You even get a little string stamp for the balloons! I had my sewing machine out so I decided to add a stitched effect around the edge in grey thread to compliment the Smoky Slate card base I used.
I then cut three smoky slate happy die cut words from the Hello You Thinlits and one in whisper white and layered them to create dimension. I simply stuck them in the centre so that the greeting popped against the bright coloured balloon background and add the word birthday from the Crazy About You stamp set.
A smattering of sequins was all it need to finish it off.
All the supplies I used are shared below, simply click any of the images to go direct to my shop to place an order and don’t forget to add the hostess code.
