For my card today, I decided to play with the new Photo Display Pop-up die set, rather than use photos on the pop up I decided to use Alphabet dies to spell out Happy BDay .... there would be many different occasions you could spell out using this die. I also love how easy it is to use this pop up.

I had a blank space at the side of the back pop up, so I add the hot air balloon from the Love is in the Air Charms set which is also a new die from this release.


To decorate the card I added two hot air balloons, using the new Hot Air Balloon die set. I wanted this card to have a masculine feel. I also added some grass along the bottom edge of my card, using the Nature Edges die set.


For the front of the card, I again used the Hot Air Balloons die set to add more hot air balloons to my card. I added two sentiments, one from the Love Notes Clear Stamp set and the other from the Stage Scenes Clear Stamp set. I used one of the labels from the Greeting Labels die set to die cut the sentiments.


Well that's about it from me today, thank you for dropping by. To continue on the blog hop, click on the next person on the list, which is Jennifer Webster
