SOOOOOO many things to be inspired by in this photo! I went with the cake, confetti, balloons, flowers, colors, but no ice cream cones...how is it that with millions of stamps, I do not own any ice cream cone stamps?!! Oh well, still had FUN playing with my new balloon stencils and an older birthday cake set called Just Desserts.
I started by stenciling my background with the new Balloon Stencil with Aqua Mist, Harvest Gold, and Hibiscus Burst inks. The cake is from the Just Desserts set and I made my own confetti on the cake layers using markers.
I've had this Just Desserts set for over a year now and had never used it...FUN set to play with and I love the sentiments too!! Attached all my layers to a Hawaiian Shores card base and added a few colorful enamel dots and some bakers twine to finish my card off!
I LOVE hopping to see what everyone else created using the inspiration photo...happy hopping friends! You can check it all out right HERE.
Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
