YNS Celebration + Color Throwdown #405

Hi all! It's a busy day on the blog today as I'm guesting with Your Next Stamp for their Design Team Dare: Celebration and gearing up with Color Throwdown Challenge #405. 

I decided to combine the two challenges using a newly released stamp set and die combo from Your Next Stamp called Happy Birthday YNS 2016. It's a fun set filled with every balloon pattern imaginable in addition to big and bold sentiments!

I'm particular to the stripes, of course, but I tried to use most of the patterns to give my clean and simple card a little pizazz and then added sparkly clear YNS Gumdrops.

I hope you'll make a little time to play along with both of these challenges this week, and I'll be looking for you on both the Color Throwdown blog and the YNS blog. By the way, you'll be eligible to win a YNS stamp set of your choice by playing along with the YNS Celebration Challenge with full details HERE.

Before I go, I'd like to thank YOU for spending a little of your day here to see what I've been up to and to Your Next Stamp for having me as a special guest this month. It's always so much fun to play with YNS stamps and dies (and have I mentioned how much I love their Gumdrops?!).
