Well, looky there! I think I did it, but for some reason I could not put it in the file I wanted it to be located on my computer.
This designer paper background on the card was made with bingo daubers. I just spotted them all over white card stock and overlapped here and there. When I was done I thought it looked like balloons so I decided to make a birthday card using the background over blue denim card stock which I punched with a Martha Stewart punch. I placed this on a white card base. I popped a birthday cake image from the Gina K. Designs Party On stamp in the left bottom corner. Then on the white card stock base bottom I added the streamers which are also from the Party On set and a sentiment from the Blossom Set by Gina K. Designs. Inks used were Gina K. Designs Passionate Pink, Turquoise Sea and Blue Raspberry. I thought they matched colors of the daubers quite well.
I am entering this into the Mod Squad Challenge Blog challenge which for this week was to make a "do-it-yourself"background for a card. I think this will qualify.
Well, this will be my only post for this week. More company coming and also another wintery/spring storm on the way too! Hope all in it's path are safe and out of the elements.
Thanks for stopping by and God bless, Verna
