STAMPlorations Birthday Blog Hop - Day 3

Day 3!

With Guest designer: KEREN BAKER

There's a lot of celebrating going on over at STAMPlorations for its second birthday!  We'd love it if you'd join us too!  The STAMPlorations team has all been busy making fabulous projects to inspire you.  We've been playing with the new party themed sets.  Here's my project for today...

For this card I wanted some balloons and stars stenciled.  I didn't have any stencils of these and so I made my own by die cutting them.  I then placed my balloon stencil where I wanted it and sponged on teal zeal and elderberry Memento inks.  Then I stamped the pinwheel stamp using the elderberry ink and the swirl lollipop using the teal zeal ink.  Then, using my homemade star stencil I sponged on my stars using mowed lawn Distress ink.  I stamped the sentiment in nautical blue Memento ink.  Another fun one layer card!  :-)

So, if you want to have a chance to win some prizes you can comment along the hop and/or you can link up your birthday/party themed creations over at the blog.

I used the following party themed sets:

Commenting and linking close on Monday, July 6. Winners are announced on Tuesday, July 7.
