Congrats! Celebrate!

 Hello!  My card today is about celebrating and sending congratulations.  I've selected the theme to be a birthday celebrating with balloons.  The Inkadinkado stamp is a NBUS that I received sometime ago in a blog candy.  I printed the balloons on white CS using a Silhouette file on the Cameo and stamped the words with Memento tuxedo black ink.  I then embossed this with Cuttlebug EF Happy Birthday and attached to a Pink card base. Added some sparkle to the balloons with Clearstar Pen.

Challenges:
Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge: Theme is Celebrate.
Just Us Girls Challenge: Word this Week is Congratulations. Congrats to JUGS on their 300th Challenge.
CAS on Sunday: Embossing
Clear It Out Challenge: Theme is Anything Goes, Stash is Anything Goes


Have a great day! I love reading your comments. Theresa

Cityscape at Sunset

Hello!  I have been playing with my cameo and cut 2 cityscapes-one in black CS and another in Watercolor paper and the word Celebrate! from a scrap of leftover colored with Distress Inks.   I colored the one cityscape with a Blue Distress ink creating an ombre look.  Using a piece of Watercolor Paper colored with Distress inks Wild Honey and Picked Raspberry for the Card Base, I assembled my cut elements similar to The Cutting Edge Challenge Graphic shown on the right.  This is a new challenge to me and is only their second challenge. The challenge is to create a card that features some kind of die-cutting (manual or electronic) using the graphic for inspiration.  I used the colors and layout and theme of buildings in my card.
