In case you missed it a couple days ago, here is the Sneak Peek photo of the stamp set.
My sister-in-law is turning 30 soon, so I thought this set would be great for a 30th birthday card. Although it is not really my typical CAS style, I'm really happy with how this turned out. I'm slowly starting to use my washi tape. I've had the hardest time knowing what the heck to do with it!
The balloons are stamped on white cardstock and fussy cut. I added some liquid glue to the back of each balloon and attached the silver thread to the back and it just hangs there, so when you pick up the card, the thread swings a little bit. A fun little touch!
The background pattern was stamped using a little flower cluster stamp from Balloon Bash. The dark grey panel was attached to the card base using the striped washi tape. The balloons are attached with some foam tape, and a few sequins were added for some extra sparkle ;)
