LCDesigns: HAPPY Birthday card

Hello all,

I have 3 birthdays this week, so I needed to get busy making birthday cards. As complicated as this card looks, it's easy to put together.

This card uses the So Much Happy stamp set and Happy Dies.

I chose the beautiful Artistry Blooms DSP along with Misty Moonlight and Seaside Spray cardstock.

I love these colors together.

To make the card I started off with a 11" x 4 1/4" Seaside Spray card base folded in half.

I cut a 5 1/4" x 4" piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock. Using the Happy die, I centered it in the middle of the piece and die cut it. I adhered a piece of 2" x 4" DSP behind the happy cut out.

I cut another piece of DSP 3 7/8" x 1 7/8" and adhered it to the front.

Using DSP I cut out a large and small balloon, two sets of flags and balloon strings. I adhered the flags with liquid glue and the balloons with dimensionals, I attached the strings behind the balloons with mini glue dots (I did cut the strings down).

I used Rich Razzleberry ink to stamp birthday under happy.

I also added a 5 1/4" x 4" piece of Whisper White cardstock to the inside and stamped the sentiments and a balloon using Rich Razzleberry ink.

I finished the card off by adding some Wink of Stella to the HAPPY and balloons.
