Last Week's Card & Cuppa for Children - Beautiful Balloons Bundle

Last week was my final Card & Cuppa for Children Class of the summer. We didn’t have a regular Card & Cuppa due to the Bank Holiday.

I chose to use the new Beautiful Balloons Bundle with a Stamp Set and Dies.

For this project, I wanted to make a card suitable for anyone so chose the bright and cheery Parakeet Party, Lemon Lolly and Lost Lagoon for my colour combination.

To begin, the banners were stamped across the top in a combination of first and second generation stamping in Lost Lagoon.

Next, the balloons were stamped, again in a combination of first and second generation. Then the strings were added.

For the main balloon, this was stamped onto a separate sheet, with the sentiment added before being cut out using the dies.

A looped string made from coordinating In Color Baker’s Twine was then stuck to the back of the balloon. To keep the loop in place, it is also stuck to the background piece.

Finally, some sequins from the Neutral Adhesive-Backed Sequins pack were added for a touch of Birthday sparkle.
