YNS Feature Day - Celebrate!

Hi all!  It's Feature Day over on the YNS Blog and our theme is Celebrate!  I created a watercolored background using distress markers.  I had colored a separate piece with the same two colors and used the balloon buddies dies to cut out the balloons after I embossed them with Versamark.  The sentiment is from the 2015 YNS Birthday stamp set that is FREE when you spend $40 this month!  A couple of black gumdrops balance everything.  I used the FMS200 sketch again :D

Happy birthday, sunshine

Hi all!  I have a TAWS Flashback card for you today (a card using older sets).  I used the Christmas set Making Holiday's Bright to create a sun!  I inked up the images directly with distress markers then lightly spritzed them with water, which gives the look you see here.  'Sunshine' is also from that set and 'happy' and 'birthday' are from the Jibber Jabber set.  I used the small circle image in the set to add some orange fizz dots here and there, then accented a few of them with gold sequins.  Fun and quirky!  ;)
