I case'd this card from SU's Bday Under Construction digital kit (which I love, BTW). I used My Digital Studio to create the More Mustard background and to create the "happy birthday" embellishment, cutting it out, adding a brad to one of the stars and dimensionalling it onto the front of card. Fast, easy, and cute!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I've been trying to get a head start on some of these upcoming cards now and because the new catalog is just around the corner, I want to try and make want these cards from the supplies I have on hand...kind of my last "wahoo" with the 2012-13 supplies.

A Smooches Spiral Pop-Up

CLICK HERE TO VIEW STAMPIN' UP'S PROMOTIONS

                       (there's too many fun promos to list them all here)

My card share today wasn't planned. I had made a quick stop at Splitcoaststampers and out of curiosity checked out Monday's Technique Challenge which was " I Like to Move it, Move it", adding movement to your project, with a list of ideas.

One was a Surprise Pop-Up which piqued my interest. From there I googled pop-up cards and found a Spiral Pop-Up tutorial on Julie Davison's blog. Since I had a bunch of scrap card parts lying around, I tried out the spiral idea for fun and little by little this birthday card emerged. It's always kind of fun when a card just happens.

I'm needing some May birthday cards, so this will be a very fun card to give away! I love how it looks like a normal card on the outside, but when you open it up, (wham!) it's a bouncy garden scene.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Color Refresh, FREE Shipping and SAB Tags
