2016 VC Rocks Blog Hop

Hi Stampin' friends,

It's time again for the VC Rocks Blog Hop. This month's theme is "Cruisin' for Special Occasions".
Now what could be more special than celebrating my little granddaughter's First Birthday!
And just as special, is big sister's birthday #5, both happening in June!

Both cards use the 'Cherry on Top' Designer Paper Series 6 x 6 paper stack, and the 'Number of Years' stamp set with matching framelits.  (I am in love with this set!)

This card uses 2 circles that I turned into balloons. The balloons are Crushed Curry embossed with the Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder. The Pool Party balloon is lightly sponged with the same color to give it a little dimension.

I added Bermuda Bay baker's twine for the strings on the balloons, and stamped the words and #1 in Watermelon Wonder.

This card uses a retired Sale-a-bration stamp set named "Big Day". I love the cake in this set. I used Tip Top Taupe to stamp the cake and Watermelon Wonder, stamped off, to stamp the sentiment.

The card seemed like it needed just a little something more, so I randomly added little drops of Silver Dazzling Diamonds in the white section.










Thanks for stopping by to check out the Special Occasion cards.

Now, hop on over to VC Rocks and see the other special occasion cards submitted by other in the group.
