Hi friends! Happy Sunday! Please join me in welcoming special monthly guest Cathy Zielske for our latest edition in our EZ with CZ blog series! Read on and watch the video for more details on how to recreate these happy cards!!

Hey everyone! It’s Cathy back with another installment of EZ with CZ! Today, we’ll make two charming mini slimline cards out of one big stamped image.

The Party Balloons Cling Stamp is such a fun and versatile design to use. I thought a simple emboss resist approach using a wash of Distress Ink would make for some really happy birthday cards.

Any time you can get more than one card out of a stamped image, it’s a good thing! Here is my tutorial showing you how I created these happy cards.
