Hip Hip Hooray

Good Sunday morning all!  I got another quick and easy card to share today.  I selected a piece of Pixied card from my stash to use as the background.  The card was created using Midnight Blue Pixie Powders.  I used the largest Balloon and the outer decorative die from the Birthday Balloons die set to cut an aperture in the background.  I added mounting foam to the back then embossed a piece of white card using the Balloons Embossing Folder and attached it behind the aperture.  I cut the Hip Hip Hooray sentiment in both white and black card.   I shadowed the sentiment then glued it to the bottom left side.  I cut a balloon tail in black from the Dotty Balloons die and added it to the Balloon.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4"  x  8 1/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue
This card bears staring at for a while, to notice the embossed balloons inside the bit shape, to see the perforations around the big balloon, to enjoy the fabulous pixied background.
