I was inspired by Sandie's use of bright colors contrasting with black in this graphic card. Sandie's clean and simple style always draws me in - thanks Sandie!
Adhered some of this fabulous SU! pp to the card front. Used my text block "Happy" die to die cut the bottom portion of my card in white cs. Stamped the sentiment with 2 colors (used masking when I stamped), Die cut 2 sparkly balloons from glitter cs. I ran floss between the balloons and the bottom portion of the card - affixing both ends with strong tape (score tape). Then I popped this whole bottom portion of the card and balloons to the card front with dimensionals. Added floss bows on the balloons - Love how this turned out, so sparkly and cheery, and the dimensional effect looks so cool IRL!
I just adore this card, I like everything about it. The patterned paper is amazing, your glittery balloons are perfect, and the die cut greeting is awesome. Great take on the challenge, thanks so much for playing along withe us this week over at The Mod Squad!!!

What a fun and pretty card!! I agree and love the sparkly balloons on the dark background. Your ink colors go so well with the balloon color. Great card - someone will be lucky to get this one!! Thanks for joining the challenge at Casual Fridays!!
What a cheerful birthday card! The background patterned paper and the glitter balloons stand so well in contrast to the white die cut panel! Thank you so much for joining us at Seize the Birthday!
