Dotty Balloons


Hello crafters!  We are on to our new Celebrations collection now.  The first set in this collection is the Dotty Balloons.  This set comes with three different shaped balloons, a circle, an oval and a heart shape, along with three  different shaped strings and one straight one that can be used with all of the balloons.  I made the tab at the top of the balloon a bit larger than the bottom section of the balloons so you can either wrap it around slightly or nip off the extra area.  You can also use them to add to the balloons when they have been cut into the card too if desired. Each of the balloons has been done with a dotty design, but if you prefer your balloons without any inside pattern, you can use just the outer die to cut your balloon too.  Add your comment to the post here if you would like a chance to in this set.  I would love to know what you think so far?  Any firm favourites just yet?  I will back at 6pm for the last post of the day.  Please join us then, I would truly love it if you could!  All for now, Sue x

These are one of the new dies that caught my eye Sue pre-launch. You've given us a beautiful sample to show them to us. If I'm not one of the fortunate winners then it's top of my Sept 2019 collection list (along with the other co-ordinating dies) hope you're having a lovely day and hopefully resting before we get to see you on air again xxx

Fluffycat said...

Hi Sue, who doesn't love a balloon? Suitable for anyone from 1 to 101 and great that there are three different types and with strings - brilliant. Love also that you can have either a plain or dotty one and I think the heart-shaped one will be great for engagements/weddings.
