Sending - Anniversary Balloons

Good morning all, Thursday at last, that means it's nearly Friyay :o)), these weekends sure do take some time to come around lol.


Anyway, today's card was made for my niece and her husband when they celebrated their 2nd wedding anniversary last month.


I used 3 different sized heart punches and a selection of papers from the Docrafts, Papermania Basics collection, to make the balloons.


I made sure I punched lots as I wanted to double them up so I could use craft wire to hold them up. 


I laid each one down, then glued a piece of craft wire on the back and then added another balloon in a different pattern on the back. Then I tied them all together with a small piece of wire. 


I used the MFT Stamps, Happy Everything die for the main word. I cut it from one of the papers, stuck on to a piece of card to give it some rigidity and then cut a Stitched Banner Die to sit it on.


I used the Avery Elle, Wonky Ellements for the background and a small anniversary stamp from Simon Says Stamp to finish it off.

Hope you like it, take care and I'll see you soon.

Friends

Good morning all, hope you are having a good week.

Today's card is one I have made for a friend who's birthday is on Friday.


I used elements from the new Trimcraft goody bag that includes Back to Basic Monochrome papers, flowers, doilies etc. 


I used some plain black card for the background and a Tonic Studios border punch across the centre. 


Then I used Dynamics and Diesire flourishes also in black card and then built up a flower on the doilie. 


The sentiment is from a Creative Expressions set, stamped in black Memento ink and cut out with a tag die. 


Then as I thought it was a bit plain I added some silver gilding cream and clear Wink of Stella pen to the black card and flower. 


Hope you like it, take care and I'll see you soon.
