The Beautiful Balloons bundle is one of my favourites in the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue. Today's card was made with the stamps, Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Paper, and the awesome new Wanted to Say Dies.
The background paper has an ombre effect, and irregular stripes. I stamped small balloons and confetti directly onto the paper, using Lost Lagoon ink for the top half, and Pretty Peacock ink for the bottom half.
The balloons were stamped on Basic White card, using Pool Party, Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock inks. After cutting out this piece with a Deckled Rectangles Die, I stamped tiny stars and dots in Pool Party ink, just on the bottom third. I used Memento Tuxedo Black ink to stamp the balloon strings.
The focal piece was matted onto a slightly larger Deckled Rectangle, die cut from Pretty Peacock card. I sponged around the edges with Pretty Peacock ink, and added Loose Frosted Dots (stuck on with tiny dots of liquid glue).
Check out that gorgeous Lost Lagoon Bordered Ribbon. I love the mottled colour, and the slightly rustic texture.
I am also loving the new Wanted To Say Dies .... I'm a sucker for any word dies that create two layers, so a sentiment can be matted or used on its own. I die-cut the top layer from Lost Lagoon card (using Adhesive Sheet on the card before cutting, so it created a sticker for easy application to the white layer).
Listed below are all the products I used to make this card. If you live in Australia, and would like to shop with me for your Stampin' Up! supplies, you can get to my online store by clicking on any of the thumbnail images below.
