Hello from the UK and welcome to our international blog hop. I had the honour to be invited to participate in this activity together with a group of talented Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from all over the word to highlight some of the amazing seasonal products available until 31st May 2016 in the Stampin' Up! Spring Summer Catalog.

For today I made a colorful Birthday card I hope you like it!
This is one of the cards ideas I have had in mind using the mini fish stamp in Bear Hugs Stamp set and Timeless Textures Stamp set which I have used to create a water/ocean background.
