4 Year Birthday

4 Year Birthday


Card 3


Hi All! If you have been here for the last couple of posts then you know I have been slowly showing you most of the stamps in the new 4 Year Birthday stamp set that The Rabbit Hole Designs released in celebration of their 4th Birthday. Today I have some cute balloons. Because my card ended up being mostly pastels I chose to use a sentient from another set (Hugs). Thinking it could be a baby card, or a kids birthday, or an anything card? IDK, give me your thoughts on how you thought I did! Now, on with the Show & Tell…


I used up some bits and pieces of patterned paper, pairing it with some stenciling using Stardust Butter.

Can you see the faint shading in the balloons? I colored them with come C’s then used Nuvo Jewel Drops to add the color, texture and shine!


I added some flat sequins I received as a DT member to the stenciled part.


Copic List:

  • Balloons: C1, C0, C00

Card Details:

  • Card base of Accent Opaque White 120lb
  • Lazy Day layer cut with You’ve Been Tracked die set, adhered with tape runner
  • Spring Floral Polka Dot paper cut in 4 strips, adhered with tape runner
