Good morning! Welcome to the 2nd day of Papertrey Ink's November countdown! It's all about birthdays and celebrations this month and today I am showcasing the new Big Basics: Wish Big die.
For my first card, I used gold glittered cardstock and the new Wish Big die. I stamped my card base using streamer images from the Hooray stamp set and confetti from the Birthday Style stamp set.
I used my MISTI and stamped my balloons (from an oh, so adorable, new stamp set you'll hear more about very soon) using Spring Moss, Aqua Mist, and Hawaiian Shores (for the bottom balloon), Sweet Blush, Pale Peony, and Hibiscus Burst (for the center balloon), and Summer Sunrise and Berry Sorbet (for the top balloon).
On my next card, I cut my Wish Big sentiment from white, glittered cardstock and attached it to my patterned paper layer. I love the way white pops against a bold background.
My card base was created using the new Noted: Scalloped A2 Vertical die collection...you'll love this! After die cutting it from white cardstock, I added a bit of floral patterned paper to the bottom, and then used another die from the Noted: Scalloped A2 Vertical die collection to cut my rectangle layer and added this on top of the scalloped base.
After attaching my Wish Big die cut, I added a balloon, die cut from patterned paper, added twine for my streamer, and a few stars and sequins to embellish.
Lastly, I combined the new Big Basics: Wish Big die with the darling new What the Doodle: Piece of Cake stamp set and dies.
My Wish Big was die cut from patterned paper and then streamers from the Birthday Style stamp set, stamping them in Aqua Mist and Autumn Rose.
I used the scalloped edge from the new Noted: Scalloped A2 Vertical die collection down the right edge of my card, lining the inside with Pale Peony + White Basics paper.
There's much more to see by following the links below. All of these new products will be available on November 15th 10 PM EST HERE at Papertrey Ink.
Your doodle cake looks ready to enjoy!

Such a pretty slice of cake. And the streamers are something I will have to get. Love the balloon cards.

These cards are so festive, Melis. The first card let me know that I was going to a party you were giving on your blog. Thanks for including me!
