Celebrate with Balloon Pop Up - One Hour Card Class 054 OHCC054


Stamps - Balloon Adventures, Just for You.

Ink - Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight marker, Daffodil Delight.

Paper - Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, Whisper White.

Tools - Tombow glue, Celebrations Duo embossing folder, Big Shot, Dimensionals, Snail adhesive, Balloon Pop-Up thinlits dies, stylus, sequins, Misti.

It’s easy to make a great impression! Just place flat cardstock in this embossing folder, run it through the Big Shot, 

The embossing folders in this set deboss the words.  That means that they press into the surface of the cardstock so that the word is recessed.  The Celebrations Duo (Occasions 2017) Embossing Folders make deep, crisp impressions—great for card fronts and accents. 

For this card, I used one of the 'smears' from the Work of Art stamp set to make the word pop a little. 

On the inside of the card, the Whisper White layer was die cut with the Balloon Pop-up thinlits and then stamped and added some balloon dies. AWESOME! 

Stamped an envelope to match!
