I made two cards today with the NEW a´ la modes Big Birthday Numbers Stamp set which co-ordinate perfectly with the a´ la modes Big Birthday Wishes Stamp set.  For my first card I used Echo Park For the Record 2 6x6 Paper pad as the colours coordinate beautiful with the NEW Blu Raspberry and NEW Gumdrop Green Premium Dye Ink pads that we are releasing this month. I also used MFT Replenishments Blu Raspberry and Gumdrop Green Heavyweight Card Stock.

 I coloured the ALM Big Birthday Wishes girl with my Copics and paper pieced her out fit and popped her up on the panel cut with the Rectangle STAX Die-namics. I also used the Jumbo Fishtail Banner STAX Die-namics and then stamped the numbers from the NEW Big Birthday Numbers Stamp Set on pattern paper and Kraft Heavyweight card stock. I cut out the numbers and layered and adhered the pattern paper over the Kraft cardstock so that my numbers had more stability. I then added pop dots to the back of the numbers and placed them on the Jumbo Banner. I stamped one of the sentiments from the NEW Big Birthday Numbers Stamp set on Whip Cream Heavyweight Card Stock cut with the Sentiments Strips Die-namics and stamped with the NEW Blu Raspberry Premium Dye Ink.

One of my new favorite new Die-namics from this month's release is the NEW Party Banner Die-namics....SO cute! I used the "cut and re-cut" technique to shorten the banner to be the length of Jumbo Fishtail Banner.  I wanted the Party Banners to have a clean finished edge on both sides instead of trimming it with scissors or a paper trimmer and finally, I added some gems to the banners.

Here is the inside...I stamped the ALM Big Birthday Wishes girl in NEW Gumdrop Green Premium Dye Ink and added a few more strips of the fabulous NEW Party Banner Die-namics and stamped another sentiment from the NEW Big Birthday Numbers Stamp set.

For my Second card, I used the same layout with Echo Park Co. Sweet Day 6x6 paper pad, with the ALM Big Birthday Wishes girl, coloured her with my Copics and paper pieced her out-fit. Again, I stamped out the numbers from the NEW Big Birthday Numbers Stamp set from pattern paper and Kraft cardstock.
