JAI #147 : JUST ADD BALLOONS

This week at Just Add Ink, Trish has come up with a very cool theme .... just add balloons, to your papercraft project.

I have made a card for a little boy.  I don't actually know any kidlets turning 3, but the number of balloons I added to my card determined that the card would be for a 3 year old!

Starting off, I chose the cute starry paper from Stampin' Up!'s Snow Festival Designer Series Paper pack.  My Color Coach suggested I team Gumball Green with Marina Mist and Midnight Muse - and what a cool colour combination it is! 





Stamps: Button Buddies, Memorable Moments, Itty Bitty Banners, Owl Occasions
Card: Gumball Green, Whisper White, Midnight Muse
DSP: Snow Festival Designer Series Paper
Ink: Gumball Green, Marina Mist and Midnight Muse stampin' pads
Other: Labels Collection framelits dies, Bitty Banners framelits, Midnight Muse stitched satin ribbon, Square Lattice embosssing folder, 1" and 1 1/4" Circle punches, sponge dauber, glue dots, Post-It note (for masking), paper snips
