Neat And Tangled 5th Birthday Blog Hop

Neat and Tangled Birthday

Welcome everyone! Today we are celebrating the 5th Birthday for Neat & Tangled! This is the last day of a five day blog hop so be sure to check out the their previous days hops for more inspiration!

I’ve created a manly birthday card using Neat & Tangled Balloon Duo stencils, Hooray stamp set and Hooray Word dies. The stencils are in two pieces so you can easily layer your colors

Neat And Tangled, Blog Hop, Shari Carroll

I chose Simon Says Stamp ink colors that would look nice when layered over top of each other. They are Cloudy Sky, Sea Foam, Lake Shores, Stone and Catkin. Once I had the balloons stenciled, I added strings with a pencil (easy to erase if you make mistakes!). I stamped the greeting and also die cut 3 Hooray’s (stacked up and glued together) for dimension.

I’ve filmed a video of how I made this card. You can view it below or on our YouTube channel HERE!

  4. Hi Shari ~ I really like the softer, more muted tones you’ve chosen for using this stencil. I always feel challenged with coming up with color combos for more masculine cards and you’ve chosen well with this. I fell in love with this stencil set the moment I saw it and can’t wait to get it in my hands. Love how you can do overlapping with them. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful weekend. ~HUGS~
