Better Together... By the Shore

Here's a simple birthday card for you today.....

And...  I think it's a perfect masculine birthday card, too (which I never seem to have enough of!).

We start our card with a Dapper Denim card base.  This is such an awesome new In Color!

Next, we added a piece of Very Vanilla card stock to our card and stamped "Happy Birthday" from the Better Together Stamp Set.

Then, we punched out 2 balloons in Tangerine Tango and Pool Party card stock using our Balloon Bouquet Punch.  We brushed a little Clear Wink of Stella on the balloons to make them shimmer a bit - so fun!
