Hey Friends!  Today I'm sharing my challenge card for Impression Obsession using some new stamps!!!!  GOTTA love new stamps!!!!  I seem to always need a Birthday card and never have one!  LOL  SO.... Here is a SUPER quick card.  I used Surprise as a background stamp, stamping randomly in Real Red.  I colored the Balloon Bouquet with my copics added some white gel pen for "shine" and then fussy cut it.  I popped up my sentiment A Whole Year and added some sequins in colors to match the balloons.  Super simple.

CC Designs Day 2 Cinnamons Present

Hey friends!!!!  Welcome to Day 2 of the CC Designs Stamps release.  Today we are sharing images from Rustic Sugar.  I am using Cinnamon's Present.

I grabbed my new Lawn Fawn Rainbow plaid paper pad.  I paired some Doodlebug gems and doily.  This is my VERY first attempt at the no lines coloring.  It isn't perfect by any means but I do actually like the way it turned out.  It's fun to go out of your comfort zone, but to publish it???  ACK!  Be nice please! :)

Thanks for popping by.  You can find the other hoppees here at the CC Blog!

Your Next Stamp ~ New Release Blog Hop

HAPPY BIRTHDAY YNS!!!!!!  I am SO glad you could join us!  WELCOME!!!!! 

Today I am going to share with you one of the FABULOUS sets that will be available tonight at 10PM(EST).  YES!!!!  TONIGHT!!!!!  We NEVER wait to open birthday gifts until the next day, not going to ask you to either! ;)


My card I'm showing you was a change in progress!  I am using the Happy Birthday 2016 set with matching dies... I was going to make a shaker card. I failed to seal at the very top and when I went to shake it, well, let's just say my craft room floor, desk and even my hair looked like a PARTAY!!!!  lol  SO, I decided to just take advantage of the top piece and stamped each individual balloon style in the openings made from the matching dies with Staz-On Jet Black.  Now, Staz-On will come off of clear stamps, you just need to get on it right away.... so anyway, I have these shiny clear balloons floating on my card with you all a HAPPY YNS BIRTHDAY!!!!!  

So, there will be some winners from blog comments to be announced after the conclusion of the Hop!  You have until August 9 at midnight (EST) to be entered to win.... a $25 GC to the YNS store!!!! 

Here is your Hop link and Thank you for coming over! :)
