Hello and welcome to the Winnie & Walter WCMD Blog Hop! I am glad you are stopping by today! You should have arrived from the wonderful Joan Bardee, if not, you'll find the complete blog hop list here on the Winnie & Walter Blog.
I honor of World Card Making Day, I made this card using one of my favorite techniques:
I first created a stencil with the new Big Round Balloon Cutaways. Now I used this stencil to ink a panel of white cardstock with various coral and mint inks. I drew the strings of the balloons with a pencil and adhered the panel to a black card base.
Then I die-cut the "happy" from In a Word: Happy Coordinating Cutaways thrice from black cardstock, layered the words and adhered it to the card. I stamped and heat-embossed the "birthday" onto a strip of black cardstock, trimmed it and adhered it. Finally, I added matching sequins.
I hope you like today's card! Now be sure to leave a comment on every blog of the hop for your chance to win one of the five $25.00 coupons to the W&W store! Your next stop is the amazing Yana Smakula!
Happy WCMD, happy hopping and good luck!!
