Hello friends. To those of you that celebrated, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!

Before you know it it will be 2023😮 So for today's card, I thought it would be fun to make a simple yet interactive card. Difficult to tell from these photos but the Balloons are suspended by a thread that allows them to wiggle around.

CARD RECIPE

  • To begin I chose the background. This pattern paper panel came from the latest Free Bee from Honey Bee stamps if you made a purchase over $75.
  • I then die cut, stacked, and glued the Happy die cuts from the Happy Happy Happy A2 Cover Plate.
  • Next, I die-cut the balloons from copper-colored glitter paper using the Balloon Number Dies.
  • With a piercing tool, I poked a hole at the top of where the balloons would be on the pattern piece of paper.
  • To the back of the balloons, I added a foiled thread. To hide the hole that the thread would be going through, I die-cut another layer of the balloons and snipped the top off so that the thread end would not be seen from the top.
  • Thread the top of the string through the holes and secure them behind the panel using tape.
  • Next, line up the happy and glue it in place. I used the cover plate die cut to help with the alignment. Behind the letters secure the other end of the thread, leaving enough slack for some movement.
  • I thought the white letters looked a bit stark at this time so I added some glue dots to the bottoms of the letters using a glue pen, then sprinkled on some coordinating embossing powder and heat set it. I should have done this before I glued them down as I almost melted the strings!
  • I then finished the front by adding some gems in a coordinating color from the Grain Grunge Gems sticker set.
  • To finish I trimmed the panel and added it to another panel using the same glitter paper to create a border for the card.
