Well hello Friday!! It's time to PAR-tay!!
And what's a "par-tay" with out balloons right? This week I posted a tutorial over at StampNation with a lot of tips on how to use your balloon stamps and dies in unique and fun ways. Check out these lovelies that I made with a custom stencil using the Party Balloons die set from My Favorite Things along with a little blended distress ink.
For this card I used the following supplies:
Stamps: Big Scripty Greetings (Simon Says Stamp). Ink: ripe persimmon, spiced marmalade, crushed olive, cracked pistachio (Ranger Distress Ink), onyx black (Versafine), vintage photo (Ranger Distress Marker) Paper: white 140 lb cardstock (Neenah). Accessories: Party Balloon dies, Pinking Edge Circle STAX dies, Split Diagonal Stencil (My Favorite Things), sequins, fun foam, blank plastic stencil sheet (unknown).
I drew the strings on with a marker, using a t-square ruler. I also did some spotlighting on the sentiment by just diecutting with the Pinking Edge Circle and popping it up with a layer of fun foam.
