Wishing You a Wonderful Birthday!

Yes, it's back to back birthday but today is for one of my IG (Instagram) friends, Patricia (scrapflower) who is celebrating her birthday today. She is so sweet and wonderful and wanted to wish her a wonderful ..Happy Birthday Patricia and hope you enjoy your special day and all year round. 

Also, joining over with this week's challenge over at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday blog with the theme of"Make It Colorful". 

Here is my card:

Here I started with my Blueprints 20 again and Grout Gray scallop base. From there, I used the same blueprint to die cut the stitched rectangle from the Dots and Strips Sorbet paper pad from MFT. 

Next, I moved on to create this shaker card using the Stitched Duo 3 from Pretty Pink Posh and added several sequins colors: Tangerine, Lemon Drop, Mossy Green, Sparkling Clear, and some seed beads. 

I did make some changes from my previous shaker card using this same set. On the last card, I used foam mount where I doubled up on it which allowed for me to use my 6m sequins and add more into each square vs. in this current card.

Here, I took the Stitched Duo 3 die and put it through my big shot using craft foam sheet in purple which was the perfect size for these 4m sequins and not sticky compared to using foam mount. From there, I did trim around the sides before attaching to the Sour Apple cardstock. Next, I stamped the sentiment in the lower right hand side from the set called: Circle Sayings (SSS).

Also, on this card, I added more balloons and some glossy accents. For the sentiment on top, I die cut using the "Wishing" wafer die 3 times using white cardstock and one more using black pearl shimmer cardstock from Crafters Companion. From there, I stacked them using some multi glue, but with the black one, I glued slightly to the right to create a shadow look.  

Once again, I colored these cute little animals from the stamp set: Baby Party Animals from Simon Says Stamps using my copic markers. Perfect for a party celebration.
