Big You
Hi readers! Happy Tuesday to you! I’m pumped to share this month’s SSS exclusive feature from Laura Bassen with you that has some seriously dreamy colors blended together to make such a beautiful and textured Birthday card for someone special. I think it’s also neutral enough that you could give it to a guy or gal, which is also pretty fantastic!
Enjoy!

Laura, this card is so fun for a birthday! I have to agree with you – balloons are just perfect for b-day cards! Love how you blended the colors – awesome design with the die-cut YOU too!
Simply gorgeous!

Love those colorful balloons! Perfect use of those inks, I love it Laura! TFS
Beautiful card and I love the colors!
Hi Laura I think we should join balloons anonymous because I’m a ballon addict as well I’m more of a mylar /helium girl myself cause they last longer and I have a tank in my garage as well! I would rather receive a ballon bouquet than flowers people think I’m crazy but I don’t care ha. Your card makes me very happy and your blending is always spot on no matter what you are making thanks for a great video I always enjoy your banter while you create tfs
Love those big balloons!
I love this card!! I am a balloon addict myself Laura, and love the colors and your video!!
Wow, One of the best birthday cards I have seen in a while!! Love it!!
Fabulous tutorial from Laura – love this technique. Gorgeous card.
I love Laura’s card art! These balloons are so fun. I’m so thankful that Laura’s blog is still sending out it’s posts to her email subscribers. Sure hope you guys choose another service soon!
Love those balloons…they seem so real with the translucent look.

Gorgeous card! Of course, you have to have balloons for a birthday!
A lovely birthday card!
Those balloons look amazing! What a gorgeous card.
great idea – love the layered YOU and the balloon stencil. I will make my own balloon stencil from my dies & heavy duty plastic (from packaging!).
Fun stenciling idea. I already follow by email.
Wonderful! The colors and simplicity are just perfect!
Such a fun card! I love the technique and that YOU die!
Can’t say I liked or disliked balloons, that is until I saw this card. So cute!
