embossing folder is sponged in the three colors, Melon Mambo, Pool Party, and Crushed Curry before running it through the Big Shot.\u00a0 Sponge the side with the indents if you want the confetti to be white like it is here.\u00a0 The confetti behind the cake is created by coloring only the confetti of the Make a Wish stamp with a marker. \u00a0 For the inside Happy Birthday, I used the Wet Wipe Technique, placing several drops of reinker on a wet wipe (placed on a silicone sheet to protect your work surface) and then use that for your ink pad!\u00a0 Voila!\u00a0 Lots of random color!\u00a0 The Melon Mambo balloon is stamped and punched, the cupcakes are colored with a marker, stamped and punched, and the candle on the cake is colored, stamped and punched.\u00a0 All three punches come in the Party Punch Pack.\u00a0 The cake is fussy cut and popped up after attaching thick twine with glue dots! \u00a0 One stamper used Perfect Plum instead of Melon Mambo for a more masculine card.<\/p>\n<p>The following card uses another embossing folder technique-Stamping With An Embossing Folder.\u00a0 This is simply inking up your embossing folder and then using it to stamp on your card.\u00a0 I used the Honeycomb Embossing Folder and Sahara Sand Ink and purposely left some areas of the folder uninked for a subtle background:<\/p>\n<p><a

Whisper White paper is cut at 8&#8243; X 5 1\/4&#8243; and scored at 4&#8243;.\u00a0 It is adhered to a piece of Blackberry Bliss cut at 4 1\/4&#8243; X 5 1\/2&#8243;.\u00a0 This gives a nice alternative to our standard layering.\u00a0 The greetings are from the Rose Wonder stamp set and stampers could choose from a variety of greetings in that stamp set to create the perfect card.\u00a0 Kinda Eclectic was used for the sunbeams and greenery, and the butterflies are from the stamp set Papillon Potpourri. There are matching small and large punches to make quick and beautiful butterflies.\u00a0 The little flowers are from the Itty Bitty Punch set and gold metallic thread is looped behind the greeting.\u00a0 The silver metallic thread is used for antennae on the large butterfly.<\/p>\n<p>My favorite card for this month is a birthday card using the Party Pop Up Thinlits Dies:<\/p>\n<p><a

the &#8220;It&#8217;s My Party Designer Series Paper Stack&#8221;.\u00a0 Page 5 of the Occasions catalog.\u00a0 The Hip Hip Hooray is cut out using the Thinlit Die.\u00a0 The confetti pieces from cutting it out were used on the inside for a little extra bit of celebration!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A Day All About You&#8221; is from the Birthday Blossoms stamp set on page 8 of the big catalog.\u00a0 It is cut out with one of the Handpicked Framelits.\u00a0 &#8220;make a WISH&#8221; is from the Party Wishes stamp set and the banners are made using the little banner punch.\u00a0 The &#8220;make a WISH&#8221; greeting is colored with a black marker and stamped on a piece of the Designer Series Paper which has matching confetti on a white background instead of black.\u00a0 A black frame is made with the 1 1\/2&#8243; circle punch.\u00a0 A piece of black confetti Designer Series Paper measuring 3 3\/4&#8243; X 5&#8243; is placed behind the cut out, just down from the candle flames so the flames in the back of the cutout show the Crushed Curry cardstock.\u00a0 The strips on the side are 3\/8&#8243; X 5 1\/4&#8243;.\u00a0 I was conserving paper by making strips.\u00a0 You could just as well have an 8 1\/4&#8243; X 5 1\/4&#8243; piece of the designer paper adhered to the main card stock.\u00a0 Cut a piece of copy paper 3 3\/4&#8243; wide to slip under the Happy Birthday cutout so that you can sponge the base, the words and the candles.\u00a0 Use sticky notes to protect the sides so you don&#8217;t sponge more than you want colored.<\/p>\n<p>The balloons are punched with our new large balloon punch.\u00a0 The sides are sponged and a sparkle is added with the white gel pen.\u00a0 A glue dot holds the twine on the back of the balloon and a bow is added on top.<\/p>\n<p>Main Cardstock:\u00a0 Crushed Curry\u00a0 8 1\/2&#8243;\u00a0 X\u00a0 5 1\/2&#8243;\u00a0 Scored at 4 14&#8243;<\/p>\n<p>Black Confetti Designer Series Paper:\u00a0 5 3\/8&#8243;\u00a0 X\u00a0 4
