Scrapbook & Cards Today Blog: 10th Birthday Celebration

"Let's celebrate! Nancy Damiano here! Creating simple cards with a little pop of something special is a fun, creative outlet for me. I love to add texture and layers of color with patterned paper and stickers. Here, layers of paper from American Craft's Happy Place are stacked to create this fun birthday card. The balloon sticker pops up just over the card for a fun "floating" effect and is kept in place with a gold bow clip.

My favorite part is the little touch of fringe crepe paper at the bottom of the card. It's a simple, but unexpected touch that creates movement and a bit of fun.

Wishing the crew and fans of Scrapbook & Cards Today all the best. Here's to many, many more years of celebrating!" ~ Nancy Damiano
