Endless Birthday Wishes Tag Card

I thought that I'd switch out of Christmas mode for a bit,
and share a birthday card.  I love the photopolymer "Endless" sets,
including Endless Wishes (Christmas) and this
Endless Birthday Wishes set, because the sentiments
are great fun.  You don't have to fret much about getting 
them straight, so they are pretty worry free to use.

The coordinating 1/8 inch silver ribbon and 
Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper help to elevate the
look of the card.  I also feel that Cherry Cobbler and
Smoky Slate Blendabilities really go well together!
I placed an extra layer of Smoky Slate Chalk Talk card
stock behind the Whisper White tag to help it stand out. 

Below is the list of products used to create this card.

Big News with Circle Dangles

This is a quick and easy card to make,
with an interactive punched component.  It is festive fun
for a male or female recipient.

I used the Big News set (p 68), inked with markers,
to stamp the sentiment.  I then punched out 3/4 inch circles
of DSP from the Confetti Celebration packet.  The circles
were glued to a piece of Whisper White Baker's Twine
that was then hung from a Mini Brad (p 209).  It offers
a "controlled confetti" experience.

Age Awareness with Little Letters

Well, Blogger is being a bit pesky.  I waited to post
until it was more cooperative.

The Age Awareness photopolymer set (p 50) is great fun.
I love the "Thanks Facebook" comment because Facebook
often tips me off to upcoming birthdays.

I paired Age Awareness with the Little Letters Framelits,
rather than adding some sort of image.  Clean and simple
for your favorite birthday guy.

WCC10 Kind Koala Blendabilities


Welcome to our WaterCooler Challenge!
This week our challenge is to present a project
that uses the new Stampin' Up! Blendabilities.

 
For this challenge, I wanted to create a card that could be
used for a masculine or feminine recipient.  Kind Koala (p 113)
is the perfect image.  I also like the Fabulous Four (p 13)
set of sentiments, because they are large images that
fit nicely on a card!  Maybe it's just that I'm getting older
and like to be able to read sentiments easily?!

I colored the koala with a "base coat" of Blush from the
Blendabilities Skin Tone Assortment (p 212), so
that the koala would take on a lighter tone.  Then I
added layers from the Crumb Cake Blendabilities Set.
I punched a 1 3/4 circle in a piece of Old Olive card stock,
dry embossed with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder.
The Koala was mounted behind the opening so that the 
flower image was omitted.  That enabled me to add the 
balloon, punched from a 1 1/4 inch circle punch and
the Owl Builder Punch.

Now pop on over to the WaterCooler Challenge site to
check out the other ideas.
