Some of the paper used on this card is from my friend Jill. Today's her birthday and I wanted to let her know that I really like (and am using) the paper and made her this card with it.
I used Raspberry Fizz cardstock for the card base and added a layer of confetti pattern paper. I die-cut the balloons in Spring Rain and Raspberry Fizz and adhered them to the card on foam tape. I used Shore and Pink Sorbet twine for the balloon strings, tying them together with a bow.
I cut a strip of Spring Rain cardstock and cut the bottom with a scallop die. I die-cut "birthday" in the same confetti paper and adhered it to the blue cardstock. I stamped the additional sentiment above it in black ink and placed it on foam tape for dimension.
The balloons looked too plain, which led me to die-cut a few tiny stars to place on them. I was much happier with the card just by applying those little stars!
