Birthday Card | Creative Imaginations and Buzz and Bloom

It's that time of year for my family...you know, BIRTHDAY season! My little one turned 2 in April and May is an especially busy birthday month, so I need to get a head start on my birthday cards.

I created this card using Buzz and Bloom chipboard. What I love most about this chipboard, besides its durability, is the fact that it's lightweight. I used 2 different chipboard pieces here and the card doesn't feel weighed down at all.

I inked the sentiment and then coated it with stickles for a little extra glam. After inking the balloons, I adhered pink, yellow, and turquoise paper behind them and then added matching stickles to the centers. The chipboard coupled with these adorable Birthday Surprise papers from Creative Imaginations and embossing and I've created a cute and quick card with lots of texture!

Hope you've enjoyed this post...


Until next time, happy scrapping!
