Lift Me Up Birthday

The Lift Me Up stamp set and Up & Away Thinlit set are a bundle I haven't played with a lot. 
It is a very versatile bundle.  This card was perfect for our weather yesterday — bright blue skies with white fluffy clouds and a nice breeze to blow those hot air balloons around.

Wetlands

Wetlands stamp set is an amazing set that is great for nature lovers and helps make
those masculine cards so simple to make.  I've combined Wetlands with Urban Underground designer paper from the Occasions catalog for this quick, easy card.
