Crazy For Cupcakes ?

This card is from a set called "Crazy for Cupcakes" It has, of course, got cupcake images which I will share with you later but for this one I have used the balloon.
I've stamped it twice onto Whisper White & coloured them in with some Bold Bright colours. I stamped, coloured & cut out another balloon. This one I mounted on the card with dimensionals, added some brads and layered it onto some matching coloured card. Didn't take too long and turned out quite nicely I think. Oh... the sentiment is from the same stamp set and I stamped it around the balloon making sure of where it went by using my Stamp-a-ma-jig (a tool I can hardly do without).
Thanks for stopping by. Happy Stamping !

First from New Catalogue

At last, time to share. This card is made using a new set from the brand new Idea Book and Catalogue called "Cheers to You". I have a few made with this set so I'll share more soon. You can't see in the picture but I have used some liquid applique on the beer froth which looks great (although I overheated the bottom one & burnt it a little - makes it more unique I think). Colours here are Night of Navy, More Mustard, Real Red and Garden Green. I've also stamped the background with "Sanded" and added a little Choc Chip ribbon. Hope you like it.
