Balloon happy birthday

Today I'm sharing another balloon card made earlier this year that hasn't made my blog yet.

I found this great card by Cynthia van der Wilk on my Pinterest wanderings & wanted to try making one too. My version uses the (now retired) Cherry on Top paper stack & is a long one (approx 10 x 21cm to fit a DL business envelope).

To make it, I punched balloons with the balloon bouquet punch & adhered them to another piece of dsp & card, then cut out 'happy' using the Hello You thinlits dies. I added a 'birthday' sentiment from the Crazy About You stamp set that coordinates with the dies, curved the edges of 3 more balloons before attaching them with dimensionals & added a little bow & bling (Mini Treat bag dies) to finish it off. I think the bold colours really make this a happy card.

On the inside, I used the 'happy' piece cut out from the front (too fun to waste) & added more sentiment balloons & words from the super customisable Endless Birthday Wishes. This would even be a clean card front if you'd like.

This is a quick & easy card to do & would be great way to used dsp scraps since you only need small pieces for the balloons.

Hope you're inspired to get happy today with some balloons. Here's a collage of both pics for you to pin for later.

Thanks for visiting. I'll be back with more ideas next time. See the supply list below to see more info about what I used & links to order from my store.
