I made this clean and simple birthday card for this week’s sketch challenge using the Beautiful Balloons Bundle. The colors I used are Azure Afternoon, Bubble Bath and Lemon Lolly!
The sketch is from the weekly Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge
Tips & Instructions
Azure Afternoon Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4
Lemon Lolly - 5 x 3 3/4
Basic White - 4 7/8 x 3 5/8, stamp sentiment at top corner with Azure Afternoon Ink.
Stamp the medium and small balloons on Basic White with Azure Afternoon, Lemon Lolly and Bubble Bath Inks. Cut with coordinating dies.
Arrange the balloons and adhere to the white layer using Dimensionals on some of the smaller balloons.
Adhere the Basic White Layer to the Lemon Lolly Layer. Wrap a piece of Azure Afternoon Ribbon around the layers and adhere to the back. Adhere layer to card base. Tie bow and adhere to the bottom balloon with a Glue Dot.
I was going to add some bling or splatter to the card but I like that there’s lots of white on it.
On the inside layer (5 1/2 x 4) stamp some small balloons at the top. I stamped the first one with Azure Afternoon Ink but stamped off on a piece of scrap to get the light color. Next stamp with Lemon Lolly and Bubble Bath Inks.
Add some strings using Black Memento Ink. I only inked part of the string and cleaned the stamp between each balloon.
Stamp the sentiment with Azure Afternoon Ink.
