"I'm singing that song"…."I'm so happy…happy…happy" but this card was from one of my dear friends 50th Birthday! I just LOVE these sentiments and as I blogged yesterday….these are the "keepers of all keepers" and I highly recommend you purchase this as a bundle! It is called Crazy About You and I am crazy about it!
Remember, when you purchase things as a bundle, you will save an instant 15%. This stamp set is an array of fabulous sentiments that will surely fit many cards that you make but to me – I just adore these simple words…
Todays card is another 5" square card and I used the "happy" that was left over from my Thank You card yesterday….but do you see what I did? I embossed the lower part of the white with the Zig Zag Embossing folder (Remember its on sale just through tonight) This gives is a fun textured effect for the "happy" to sit on!
Another great and new addition and it also is a bundle called Celebrate Today….it is another keeper as this just makes you "happy" when you see it!
After cutting the balloon out I stamped it with the same color, Rose Red with the polka dot stamp. You know that I adore polka dots….so I just could not resist! I inked up with blushing bride and carefully stamped to creat a fun pattern.
I made a couple of "boo-boo's" but no worries – a quick heart from the itty bitty accents punch covered anything that I did not want seen…..
I love the fact the the balloon framelit has that great end to it – the perfect place to tie a piece of bakers twine…I have been in a "kick" with Bakers Twine…it truly is the best bang for your buck!
Isn't this just fun! I was tickled with this card and I think that I am going to make up more (like I blogged about yesterday in doing it in steps)…therefore I will have a great "stash" ready to go!
I probably should have used the same embossing folder for the back flap but again, I love my dots and this too is on sale – just through tonight! Click here to see the weekly deals…..
You know that the moral of this bundle stories is….you should click here and build your own starter kit….why? – you can get $125.00 worth of ANY product and only pay $99.00 – it ships for free and you can be done…or place an order and get a 1 time 30% discount….please feel free to email me and we can talk!
You can be like me…a "Silent Demonstrator" as I did not tell a soul except John and Mary (of course)…I say why not ?- there truly is nothing to loose and the best part is – you will save money!
Let's have a great week…..until tomorrow!
Another fun card! I’m on the fence about the balloon set. I did notice something today, though. The tassel stamp and framelit would be good for a graduation hat! There is an intriguing idea!
Thanks for sharing your talents! I’m glad you are feeling better and are more able to get back on the blog!
Cyberhugs!
Fabulous card. I really liked the touch of dry embossing, the placement of the sentiment, the mono color palette, and the bakers twine bow. Great job.
Great card Susan!! I love the Celebrate Today bundle – I can’t stop using it! Thank you for all the inspiration! Have a great week:-)
What a cheery card to start the week! Thanks for sharing–so glad you’re back.
Super fun card Susan, love the lay out with the pretty dry embossing on the bottom. The scattered little hearts with their pearl centers add a very sweet detail.
Thank you for sharing.
Good Morning Susan,
It is so nice to see you back regularly now and the familiar names on their comments – Hi everyone! I like this card for so many reasons, the colors (Rose Red & Blushing bride are terrific), the size (who doesn’t love a square card!) and the details (hearts with pearls, dots and embossing). A true keeper for sure.
🙂
Awwww….I love balloons and polka dots ! Cute card with great detail . Love it !
So glad you are mending so well.
I am happy that you are happy if not tinkled pink!!!!! Another fun card along the same lines! Oh, wouldn’t the pink and gold baker’s twine from the January Paper Pumpkin look pretty on here with just a touch of sparkle if the same pinks were used!
