The color challenge this week was easy to know what I was going to use.  I used one of my new favorite products from Stampin' Up!.  Can you guess what it could be?

If you guessed the Botanical Builder Framelits, then you would be right!  I haven't been in love with a flower product in a while, but I really love this set.  There is such a variety of flowers and leaves you have the possibilities of creating so many different projects.  Did you notice the Purple Rhinestones in the flowers?  I took a purple sharpie and colored the Stampin' Up! Rhinestones.  Love how they turned out.
What a GREAT Bundle!!

Did you happen to notice the background stamping over the brick?  This is a NEW grunge set called "Timeless Textures".  I am so glad that Stampin' Up! is coming out with more grunge sets.  The brick effect was created with a Impressions folder.  If you haven't seen this folder it is a 6X6 embossing folder.  It is also great for scrap-booking. The banner was done with the Washi Label Punch.

I hope you enjoyed today's card.  You can always join in the fun!  Below are a few DOstampers that are also creating to our color challenge.  Go have fun and check them out.

Balloon for Birthday's


What do you think of when you see this picture?

When I looked at the picture it was so nice and soft, but yet let's party!!  So of course I took the let's party out of it.  

Love how it turned out!

I really loved the idea of the cupcake being a balloon, so I thought I would incorporate that into my card as well.  I also took the soft colors and made them pop with a more bolder look.  I always lean towards the bold colors.

The cupcake which I turned into a balloon was made with the Ronald McDonald stamp set "Sprinkles of Life", which also has a coordinating punch that goes with it.  Stampin' Up! donates time and money to support Ronald McDonald House Charities.  To date they have contributed over $1,000,000 to RHMC and their network of local RMHC chapters.  When you buy the Sprinkles of Life stamp set, we donate a portion of the proceeds to RMHC.  Isn't this fantastic!!

The other 2 balloons came from a NEW Bundle that just came out in the Occasion Catalog.  I am so glad that Stampin' Up! has come out with bundles to SAVE everyone 15%.  This bundle is called "Balloon Celebration".  This comes with the stamp set and the punch, as shown below.  There are so many ways that you can use this set.  I also used a new tool called "Wink of Stella Glitter Brush" on the cupcake and the balloons.  It is hard to see in the above picture, so I did take a close up shown below.  LOVE these new pens!!
Look how it makes your project just POP!

I hope you enjoyed the card today, you have to check out the other DOstampers that joining along for this weeks challenge.





Happy Stamping!
