CSF Saturday Blog Hop - Birthday Bonanza

Today's Create With Stamping Friends Saturday Hop theme is birthdays! And birthdays always make me think of balloons (and cake, lol). 🎈🎈🎈🎂

Anyhooo, this is a CAS card that is so bright and cheerful for a summer birthday! The card base is Lemon Lolly, and the balloons are stamped in Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lime Twist, Granny Apple Green, and Lemon Lolly.

Because the card is simple and without any embellishments, I embossed the Lemon Lime Twist panel for a little visual interest.

Measurements

• Card base: Lemon Lolly 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored/folded at 4 1/4"
• Embossed panel: Lemon Lime Twist 2 1/4" x 5"
• Image panel: Basic White 2 1/2" x 4"
• Mat: Granny Apple Green 2 3/4" x 4 1/4"

Cutest Crew

I wanted to share this cute CAS card and post a quick reminder that there are two days left of the FREE shipping, with a qualified order!

I brushed a bit of Azure Afternoon on the 4" x 5 1/4" Basic White piece, then embossed it with the Forever Plaid folder and popped up on dimensionals. The birds were stamped and colored before being die cut and also popped up on dimensionals.

The greeting was popped up, too, and some Crisp Cantaloupe butterflies (to match the tall bird's beak) were added. Quick, easy, and cute!

CSF Thursday Challenge - CSF924

This week's Create With Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge are colors:

I started with  Highland Heather card base and added torn layers of Golden Glow and Lost Lagoon Two-tone cardstock.

After stamping the leafy branch from Nature's Symphony in the three colors, I tore the edge and adhered it over the torn two-tone CS and added some Dreamy Flowers. The greeting (Banner Sayings bundle) is matted on a Golden Glow label.
