Shame on me, I missed one of my friends Birthdays recently so this is the card I have made to say sorry. She is on holiday at the moment so she will get it on her return. When this set came out I fell in love with it and loved all the samples by the ATS DT and this card is inspired by those. I layered SU! Bashful Blue CS on to a white card blank then a layer of white CS followed by a strip of Piggy Tales paper accross the bottom wrapped around with some blue grosgrain ribbon. I have then stamped the cute snail with Airondack ink and hand drawn a little trail for him, coloured in with Copics. On a seperate piece of card I stamped the balloons and cut them out adding glitter to them with my Spica pen. I have then stamped the greeting seperate too and rounded the corners to make a tab. The obligatory 3 gem stones added to finish!
STAMPS: CC Designs. INK: Airondack Pitch Black. CS: Craft Creations, Stampin Up!, Papertrey Ink, patterned paper by Piggy Tales. ACCESSORIES: Woodware small corner rounder punch, Grosgrain ribbon by Ribbon Oasis, Papermania Adhesive Gems, Copic At You Spica glitter pen, Copic markers. 
This is gorgeous Michelle, I love the paper and the little snail. x
