Caardvarks and DRS Designs June Challenge

Caardvarks had teamed up with DRS Designs for our next challenge.   The new challenge is to use wet or dry embossing.  For my first card, I did both:

This card uses Silhouette Balloon and All About You Birthday Greeting.  I used my Cuttlebug and Happy Birthday embossing folder for the background.  I stamped the balloons in turquoise and red and then covered them with UTEE (ultra thick embossing enamel) and then heat embossed them to make them shine like real balloons.


One these cards, I used the Silhouette Balloon and Birthday Candle Burst stamps.  On this card, I stamped the balloon images on my cardstock with Versamark and then I applied some clear embossing powder and heated it to make them shiny on my cardstock.

The stamps that they sent me just called for bright and happy colors....perfect for birthday themed cards.  I hope you will come on over and join us for the Caardvarks challenge this month.

Hugs,
