Happy Birthday Balloon Card with DIY Tutorial

Happy Birthday Dies and Stamps

I have an assortment of Spellbinders dies that I used from  the  Elegant 3D Vignettes collection by Becca Feeken .

This birthday card features two different Stamp/die products from the Spellbinders collection:

Spellbinders Oh Happy Day -Elegant 3D Vignettes Collection

Spellbinders Layered Happy Birthday Elegant 3D Vignettes

The background of this card was created using the "Happy" stamp that came with the 

Spellbinders Oh Happy Day -Elegant 3D Vignettes Collection (stamp/die set).

I used Watercolor Paper misted with water and stamped with a variety of Distress Inks ( Weathered Wood,  Peacock Feathers, Twisted Citron)  to create a cool watery flowing look.  

I have a super quick video (1 minute long - yeah I mean quick!) showing how I created my watery background.

In order to create a little dimension with the balloons, I added a layer of foam to some of the details.   This was done by die cutting thin fun foam I bought at a craft store. 

 You can see another card made using the same stamping method to create a the watercolor background right here. 

 Thank you for stopping here and thank you to Spellbinders for inviting me to be part of the Spellblogger Team.  Such a wonderful opportunity to share the best dies in the world.
