Welcome, SCT friends! It’s Dilay Nacar here today to share this ‘Congrats’ card created using goodies from Honey Bee Stamps and cardstock scraps! I enjoy combining fun and bold colors, and what I love about this card is that by varying the colors of the balloon layers, you can personalize this card to many different occasions! 

Supplies | Honey Bee Stamps: Mod A2 Cover Plate Honey Cuts,  Balloon Arch Honey Cuts, Thinking of You Stamp Set, Thinking of You Honey Cuts, Big Buzzword Honey Cuts, Gold Lights Confetti Mix, Precision Tip Glue; Spellbinders: Platinum 6 Die Cutting & Embossing Machine, Mirror Gold Cardstock; Taylored Expressions: TE Premium Cardstock; The Stamp Market: Color Crush Cardstock; Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L: 3D Foam Circles White Mix

I like to begin by choosing the colors I’m going to use; in this case, I went with blue, yellow, orange, gold, and coral. I cut them with the dies from the Honey Bee Stamps Balloon Arch Honey Cuts set, repeating it a few times to have enough balloon layers to cover the balloon arch. If you have extras leftover, you can layer them for extra dimension! 

Next, I die cut the circle wreath in gold cardstock and adhered it to a base made by die cutting the Mod A2 Cover Plate Honey Cuts and placing it onto an A2-sized card base. I then die cut the embossed balloon bases and adhered the balloon layers on top, overlapping the colors, and once complete, I adhered them to the circle. 

For the sentiment, I cut the ‘big’ word die from the Big Buzzword Honey Cuts in gold cardstock and the shadow in white cardstock and adhered it to the card with foam tape. For an additional pop of color, I used blue cardstock to stamp and heat emboss ‘congrats’ from the Thinking of You Stamp Set, then die cut and adhered it to the card. For a little extra sparkle, I added Gold Lights Confetti embellishments.

I hope that you enjoyed my card and found some inspiration! Thank you so much for joining me today. Have a wonderful week!
