Party Time Cake Birthday Card

Hello! For this colorful birthday card, I played with the fun and festive Party Time Cake set, the bonus item this month for the Deluxe Caboodle Value Club Membership at Spellbinders. Using the cake die multiple times, I created a lineup of cakes in various colors, with a die-cut banner and cheerful balloons, created with dies in the Small Die of the Month set, to add to the celebratory feel. The design highlights repetition as a technique, making each cake both a focal point and part of a fun, cohesive look.

You can view a video describing the bonus item HERE. Learn more about repetition in card design in THIS POST.
