Balloon Tail Sentiments
Hello there my crafty friends! The lovely large balloons from the previous set just had to have Balloon Tail Sentiments to go with them! There are three sentiments in this set that are perfect for use as the balloon strings but they are sentiments as well! You have "happy', "birthday" and "wishes" that can all be used as tails for your balloons or just across the card like any other sentiment; your choice! If these are singing to you, then you just need to add your comment to this post. It is very easy to do, but if you have never done it before, there are easy to follow instructions on the right hand side of my blog. I shall return at 6pm for the final post of the day. All for now.

Afternoon Sue, love the style of these dies and the way you have used them as the string. I particularly like the Balloon embossing folder. Good dies. AON
The Balloon Tail Sentiments are wonderful and versatile. . . they can be used without a balloon, too. I love the way you die cut the balloons from the top card layer, which allows the embossed balloon background to be visible. Great card! Hugs.

What a great idea to design these so they can be used for the balloon strings or independently too. Think this could be a favourite. It is certainly singing to me. Neat card too.
