This is one of the cards we did at our September Club Meeting. I love the contrast of the Rainbow Glimmer paper and the Black cardstock!! What a fun birthday card for anyone!
Measurements:
- Basic Black: 1/2 sheet cut LENGTHWISE
- Rainbow Glimmer (N): 1 3/8" strip
- Melon Mambo (or other coordinating cardstock): scrap
- Whisper White: scraps
To Make This Card:
- Measure 1 1/4" from bottom of folded Black card, and cut out with "Happy" die.
- The easiest way to cut out the letters is to select an area on the Rainbow Glimmer strip and cut out all the letters at once. OR, you can select individual colors from the strip and cut out 5/8" - 3/4" squares and cut out the letters individually. A little more time-consuming, but worth the effect. Adhere the letters over the black letters on the card base.
- Take the remaining strip(s) and cut out balloons. Both small and large dies are included. Remember to use Odd numbers - 1,3,5,7 - for your "bouquet" of balloons.
- Cut 1-3 "strings" from Whisper White cardstock. I also cut one small bow from the remaining Glimmer scraps.
- Gather up your old Glitter Dots, Rhinestones, or coordinating sequins and scatter around.
