Hello there! Thank you for joining me today for a commissioned birthday card created from the Bright & Beautiful Suite Collection. I was told the colors that my very eccentric client wanted her card in of Bubble Bath, Flirty Flamingo, Lemon Lolly, Balmy Blue, and Fresh Freesia, and I made it work with a very happy customer.
I also created my own background paper using the small and medium balloons.
I brought in Online Exclusives of Radiating Stitches Dies to cut the frame from Bright & Beautiful DSP and Vellum Basics Specialty Designer Series Paper.
We have NEW Online Exclusives coming up next month that I will be featuring for you next week. The One Horse Open Sleigh Suite Collection is fabulous and a sneak peak is below!

As always, your shopping Supplies and Instructions, including measurements, are below.
I started out with my Balmy Blue card base and layered on my Bright & Beautiful 6 x 6 DSP atop with Seal Adhesive.
I then went about stamping the medium and small balloon images from Beautiful Balloons onto a piece of Basic White Regular CS in Flirty Flamingo, Lemon Lolly, Balmy Blue, and Fresh Freesia. I took the small dot and stars image from Beautiful Balloons and stamped that in the middle of the medium balloons to accent with the same colors.
I used the swirly dot stamp inked with Bubble Bath to fill in the open white space then adhered this panel to the card base.
I took the medium and small Radiating Stitches Dies to create my frame by adhering the medium die to the Bright & Beautiful DSP in Lemon Lolly and evenly inlaid the small rectangle, cut, and adhered to the card base with liquid adhesive.
I stamped the sentiments from Beautiful Balloons onto Basic White Regular CS in Balmy Blue and Fresh Freesia. I die-cut the sentiment from the Layering Circle Die measuring 2-3/8″ at its widest point.
I then cut the Vellum Essentials Specialty DSP from the polka dot pattern with a large Layering Circle Die measuring 2-7/8″ at its widest point.
I adhered the sentiment circle to the vellum with liquid adhesive.
I cut 4 small stars from Beautiful Balloons Dies from Bubble Bath and Flirty Flamingo CS.
For final assembly, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the sentiment and stars and adhered as shown above.
Four gold and one silver sequin from the Neutrals Adhesive-Backed Sequins were used to embellish.
I hope you enjoyed today’s project and please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you for stopping by for a visit and have a great day!
