More Cards!

I had to take a bit of a break from photo editing a couple of weeks ago to make some cards for some family celebrations. I'm not finally sharing them.

First up is a 40th birthday card that is very similar to one I made earlier this year, just using different colors. 

Next up is a card using a background that I created during the Simon Hurley class for SBC Fest. I simply cut the cake and stamped, heat embossed and fussy cut the banner and attached them to the ready made background. I used yellow Stickles gel for the "frosting" to finish off the card.

This was another card that I had the background already made way back when I made a bunch of teacher thank yous, I just added the die cut and created a shaker feature. To make the shaker feature, I used the shadow cut for the balloon and cut it from clear stiff packaging. I glued the die cut on top and then cut foam tape into thin strips and adhered it behind the outline of the balloon. I filled the well created by the foam tape with sequins, beads and glitter. I then pressed the card back onto the exposed adhesive. I finished off the card by gluing on a piece of embroidery floss as a string to the balloon.

Finally, I made an anniversary card using a scrap from the background stamped for the first card in this post. I stamped and heat embossed the flowers on the background cardstock and also stamped and heat embossed the sentiment. I added a strip of gold foil cardstock to the seam between the two parts. With the sentiment on the right, it needed a little something on the left, so I added the three red mini brads.
