It’s hard to believe another month –and year– is upon us, which means so many things this month, including the Color Fusers Blog Hop! Thanks for joining us today for another color challenge.

All these bright fun colors this month made me think birthday, so I decided to feature a new birthday stamp set.

I am excited to delve into the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. With it comes the most popular promotion of the year, Sale-A-Bration. During Sale-A-Bration, you are able to earn a FREE exclusive item with each $50 in purchases. And there is no limit!

Today, I am featuring one of the Sale-A-Bration stamp sets, Approaching Perfection. This set is sure to be a birthday staple. And this simple, but cute card came together easily.

Creating a window card is a fun way to showcase the inside of your card. For today’s project, I stamped a row of multicolored balloons in the center of the inside layer. I then cut the center part of the card front out, and replaced it with a piece of Window Sheet.

The window allows the colorful balloons to show through. The witty News Flash stamp was stamped in Melon Mambo ink. I split the image and adhered it to the card front.

Next, my Stampin’ Blends came to the rescue, and allowed me to create a custom ribbon color. I simply colored the Crinkled White Seam Binding Ribbon Mango Melody to match the color challenge.

Finally, I added a few Mango Melody sequins to finish it off.

I hope you liked todays project, and the little peak of what’s coming! The January – June 2021 Mini Catalog and 2021 Sale-A-Bration Catalogs go live tomorrow, January 5th, and the products are amazing!.

Thanks for stopping by today! Next up is the talented Brenda Nelson.
