The details for each card follow.
Be sure to check out the rest of the blogs in the hop for beautiful inspiration and ideas for card making.

This is a look at my first card.


Sentiments:
You're Awesome.
You Rock.
Bday Mix.
Life is a mix tape.
To make this, begin by inking up and stamping a background in an ombre look. Then, stamp the cassette tapes, balloons and all of the sentiments. Next, add color to the stamping and then fussy cut (cut out) the accent layers. Finally, layer and adhere it all onto the card base, to finish.

And a bit closer:

Here is a look at the second card.
Sentiments. You're not old, you're vintage. Happy birthday. To make this rustic vintage card, use a kraft color card base. Then, stamp the background map over the vintage patterned paper using StazOn black ink. Next, trim or die-cut the background layer and the frame for it. Also, stamp and cut added sentiment and accent layers. Finally, layer it all onto the card base, to finish. Now, here is a closer look.
