Lift Me Up

Good afternoon friends.

This afternoon while doing card sketch challenges, I had the perfect sketch to use the new Lift Me Up bundle available in the 2017 Occasions catalog.  I just love the colors and the hot air balloons.

I used a card base made from Peek A Boo Peach card stock cut to a standard A2 size.  I stamped the smaller of the hot air balloons using Watermelon Wonder, Night of Navy and Peek A Boo Peach stampin ink pads onto Very Vanilla card stock and I cut them out with the matching framelits and my Big Shot.  I mounted them along the side of the card with dimensionals for a little extra "pop".

Next I cut a piece of the Carried Away DSP that's available for FREE with $50 purchase in Sale A Bration.  Who doesn't like FREE!!  The DSP is cut to 4" x 4" and secured with snail adhesive.  I stamped "Happy Birthday" from the Lift Me Up stamp set in Watermelon Wonder ink onto Very Vanilla card stock and cut it out with a banner. It is also mounted with dimensionals. I masked off the stamp to only get the Happy Birthday for the front and then I masked it again to use for the inside sentiment...."Hope your day is on Cloud 9".


It's been an icy weekend here and this card just makes me happy.  I hope you've enjoyed it and thanks for stopping by. Enjoy the rest of your day and evening.
