Shopping Our Stash #338 ~~ Birthday!!!

Now the holidays are over it's time to re-stock your supply of Birthday cards, the gals at Shopping Our Stash want to see birthday cards with balloons, cake, cupcakes perhaps presents too.  For my design team card I had a super cute digital image from Mel-jens digis which no longer available. I still have quite a few cute images from my days as a designer for Clear it Out Tuesday.  Every thing I used was a scrap even the base I used was in the scrap folder.  I also broke out the balloon die set I've had for over a year and hasn't been used.


The birthday embossing folder I received free before I even had a die cutting machine. Isn't the little mouse cute? and so different from my usual "meece"


close up I hope you can see the simmer from the wink of stella.


Carrying the balloon theme to the inside I finished with a hero arts sentiment.


Thanks for visiting today and head over to the Main Blog and check out the rest of the Birthday cards.

Laughing at Mimi's 'making out' remark, then laughing at Donna's not so subtle remark about her birthday coming up! I think this card is all kinds of amazing! Love the purple and that is a cute wee mouse image!

Love the way you used all of those elements in your stash!
Beautiful inside too.
