​Let's Celebrate You!
I combined the 2018-2020 In Colors with Whisper White to create two stunning cards. The stark white sets off these bright colors.

This first card uses the Bonanza Buddies stamp set and dies. I created a rainbow strip of cardstock along the right side. This is attached to a white rectangle of cardstock that is adhered below the top layer. There is an additional layer of Whisper White cardstock below it before you reach the card base. 

The top layer of white has been embossed with the Corrugated 3D embossing folder for added texture and attached with Stampin' Dimensionals to raise it off the card front.
​

I cut a circle from the Stitched Shape dies and stamped the balloon strings on it. Then, I stamped the balloons in Blueberry Bushel, Lovely Lipstick, and Grapefruit Grove and cut them with the Bonanza dies. The greeting is stamped with Lovely Lipstick ink. The card front is "tied" together with two pieces of Whisper White Baker's Twine.

Make a Wish!
The second card uses the Broadway Birthday stamp set and dies. The balloons and "Wish" sentiment are cut from Pineapple Punch, Color Me Clover, Blueberry Bushel, and Lovely Lipstick cardstock. The "Make A" portion of the sentiment is stamped with Blueberry Bushel ink.

The front panel has been embossed with the retired Polka Dot embossing folder. It is attached with Stampin' Dimensionals as is the front rectangle which was cut with the Stitched Rectangle dies.
​

This card is filled with dimension and texture! It's a whimsical card that is perfect for anyone's birthday.
