Die Cut Balloon Birthday

Hi everyone! Ilina here. Today I am sharing super fun card using the new Balloon Window Fancy Die and adding color to it. 

To make the card start with a piece of Dove White cardstock measuring 4" x 5 1/4". Die cut the Balloon Window Fancy Die in the center. Next using alcohol based markers (I used Copics) color each of the balloons. I decided to go with more pastel colors, but you can pick out a palette of your choice. 

Once done coloring, cut a piece of Lavender cardstock measuring 3 7/8" x 5 1/8" and adhere it on the back of the balloon window. 

Die cut "happy" from the Happy Thanks Stamp and Cut XL three times using Pitch Black cardstock.the Stack the die cuts and let them dry. In meantime stamp "birthday" using Clear Embossing and Watermark ink and emboss in white. Trim to size. 

Adhere the "happy" and "birthday" to the balloon frame. Add the entire panel to a top folding note card made from Pitch Black cardstock using craft foam. To finish it off, add details to the balloons using white gel pen. 

Thank you so much for stopping by and hope you have an amazing day!
