I have only been on the Sweet 'N Sassy Design Team a few months and I'm so excited to be a part of their 10th Anniversary Celebration. There are lots of giveaways and surprises in store. HERE'S A LINK outlining everything.
I used the stamp set below from Sweet 'N Sassy Stamps called So Happy.
I made a couple of Quick and Easy birthday cards using this stamp set. There are SO many possibilities.....

I have been wanting to make a card for so long just using a blob of watercolor as the background so that's what I did with this one. I used Bristol Smooth paper and wet it first in the middle and then just added some Gambai Tambi Watercolor Paint in a purple color, I think it's #135. I let it go wherever it wanted to. I heat set it, added a little more color and swirled it around a little with a paint brush. Next I embossed the word Happy with Brutus Monroe Ultrafine Alabaster Embossing Powder. I also embossed the word Birthday with the Alabaster on black cardstock and cut it down into a strip. The silver glitter strip is a strip of glitter paper just cut into a strip. I layered it on black cardstock and added a few clear sequins.
For this card, I used Blue Lagoon cardstock by Gina K Designs, Turquoise Sea would also work. I used the MISTI to stamp and space out the word, Happy, and embossed with Brutus Monroe Ultrafine Alabaster Embossing Powder. Also embossed the word Birthday same powder. I had used Thermoweb Transfer Gel with a stencil and foiled with Rainbow Decofoil so I cut a couple of thin strips and adhered to the sides. This foil just screams birthday, celebration, etc., to me. I added some clear sequins to finish it off.
I think you will have a lot of fun with this stamp set and it would also make a great gift for a crafty friend.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
