If you've been following me lately either here on my blog or on Instagram, then you know I am head over heels in LOVE with the pinwheel stamps, dies, and stencils from The Greetery! So after looking at the inspiration photo, the pinwheels and streamers, and all the bright colors said let's make another CELEBRATION card!!
I started by using the Pinwheel Party Stencils and lots of bright colored inks to stencil my background, and also added a little light yellow shading with a blender brush. Next I die cut some streamers using the Twisted Crepe Dies (also The Greetery) and glued them down over the background.
I stamped and die cut the "celebration" from The Greetery's Birthday Blooms set and added foam tape to the back for some dimension. The "Summer" stamp comes from The Greetery too...the Lemon Blossom set. I matted my top layer with a piece of Crushed Curry cs (SU!) and then adhered both layers to a white card base. Some clear sequins from PPP finished off my Summer celebration card.
Check out all the wonderful Summertime inspired cards from the DT HERE and then play along. The challenge is still open for a few more days and is the perfect opportunity to get some of those Summertime birthday or other celebration type cards done.
Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
