Hello there! I can't believe how fast the two months have flown by and I am now at my final post as the Surprise Party Guest for Seize the Birthday (STBf)! I want to thank the team at STB, in particular Nancy, for having me join them this summer. I've enjoyed playing along with the optional toppings and this one was no different because I love Rainbows!
Rainbow cards are always so cheery and fun. Here's my clean and simple (CAS) birthday card.
On a stitched rectangle die cut from Whisper White cardstock, the HB2U was stamped with Memento black ink, then masked. Next, took a DIY die cut balloon stencil in my supply and blended distress inks in rainbow colours with a mini blending tool. On three of them, I double stencilled by inking through a Shooting Star stencil over top of the balloon stencil.
Drew in the balloon strings with a black Copic multiliner. Heat embossed the sentiment from the same set with white embossing powder on a black strip. Adhered the panel to a white card base, then added Crystal Glaze to HB2U for some shine and dimension. Popped the sentiment strip up on some foam tape to finish.
And that concludes my time with the ladies at STB. For more fabulous inspirations, head over to the STB blog HERE. Hope to see you in the gallery. Thank you for your time. Have a wonderful day!

Trina, this is absolutely fabulous! I love your rainbow balloons and the extra added stenciling..CAS perfection! You have been an awesome guest for us at STB..,thanks for joining us and sharing your talent with everyone!
Wow, love your CAS card with the pretty rainbow balloons, and how you stenciled the stars over them. So pretty. Thanks for being our guest for the past two months and sharing your beautiful creations.
I love this card! The balloon bubble letters are perfect, and the stencilled balloons are beautiful. Such a great card to finish off two months with us - thanks, Trina!
Sure is a fun and cheery card. The balloons look fabulous and the lettering looks so dimensional and super shiny X
those rainbow balloons are beautiful Trina, and the crystal glaze on the HB2U gives so much dimension.
This is such a fantastic card! The HB2U looks like it is popped up, not like its actually the same layer - I was so surprised when I read that! The balloons look absolutely fabulous too! Thank you so much for being a fabulous Party Guest and such a wonderful inspiration!
The diagonal of stencilled balloons is just perfect and the addition of the balloon bubble letters is brilliant! Lots of fabulous empty white space too! Thanks for playing at AAA Cards.
A beautiful rainbow of balloons, Trina! Love the matching balloon letters! Fun!
Fun blowing balloons. It's been fabulous seeing your creations the last couple of months!
This is a delightful card, Trina. Like the abbreviated sentiment...HB2U. It's sure to appear some way on the next birthday card I make. tfs

Super cute card, Trina! I love how your balloons are drifting across the page, and the puffy balloon sentiment.
Fabulous CAS card, Trina! Thanks for playing at AAA Cards challenges.
Need to stop by and make an official message on how much we enjoyed having you these past two months at STB. Your final card with us is as fabulous as the rest of them. The crystal glaze on the HB2U looks fabulous! Enjoy your Sunday and thanks again!
I love it! Thanks for playing along at AAA Cards with this original and CAS beauty.
This card is so much fun! The translucent look of you rainbow balloons is fantastic (also adore the stars on some of them) and the sentiment is adorable!
This CAS card is just a light looking feel to tit with the balloons floating in the air. I love the look that you got with them. Thanks for being our Surprise Party Guest for Seize the Birthday.
