Balloons

Hello there.. Jackie here with todays inspiration. Todays card is great if you need a super quick design in a hurry! this card could also suit a number of different occasions by simply switching out the sentiment.

Step One:

Start by stamping out the 'happy text' from stamp set - Everyday Essentials Happy CS299 on to a scrap of whit ecard stock.

Step Two:

Use the cloud like die form set - Slimline adventure edges 1925 to cut two strips that resemble clouds. Ink the shaped edge to add some dimention.

Step Three:

Cut a panel of white cardstock measuring 5 x 5" or 127 x 127mm. Trim the prepared cloud strips to fit across the panel then glue in place at a slightly crocked angle. Stamp the LOVE YOU sentiment using black ink. - I did cut my stamp so that I could use the love you on its own but you can mask off the stamp if you prefer.

Step Four:

Layer the panel onto a top folding card blank measuring 5.25 x 5.25" or 135 x 135mm.

Die cut the square frame into black cardstock then again into back fun foam and glue the two together. Fix this to the centre of the card front.

Step Five:

Use the balloon die to cut three patterned paper balloons then tie some gold twine around each one leaving a long tail. Pop up on 3d foam pads.

Step Six:

Carefully glue the balloon tails at the card bottom then once dry trim off any excess. add some hearts form the shaker bits along with a few sequins.

That's it for todays card, I hope I have inspired you today. Like I said before this card would be good for a number of occasion - Happy crafting.. Jackie.
