Was watching one of Jennifer McGuire's latest videos and thought it was so fun. So, this is my go, although simpler than hers. She had a pop-up feature that I didn't use. If I make another one like this, I'll probably use black for my sentiment.
I used the Balloon Framelits for the main balloon and then cut several more of the balloon bottoms for the bigger circles. For the smaller ones I used the bottom of the balloon punch and just attached them to the back. The tails were hand drawn.
Accessories: white EP, circle dies, Balloon framelits, balloon punch, clear sequins, MFT Wonky Stitched Rectangle dies, dimensionals, blender brushes, black fine line marker

What a fun, colorful, celebratory birthday card this is Michelle. I love everything about it. Even someone who is not happy about having a birthday will smile when they see this fabulous card! I like the white embossed sentiment here... ~Karen.

Love this fun and beautiful card! Personally, I like the white sentiment because you can see it and it doesn't take away from the great colors of the balloons.

What a fantastically festive card this is! I love those large balloons. The sponging really makes them look 3D and those hand drawn strings are fabulous! Great celebratory card!

Love, love, love this card! The big brightly colored balloons bouncing their way to the top of the card, the sequins sparkling everywhere and the delicate confetti in the background all work together to make a dynamic birthday card filled with good cheer. A+++ in my book! Popping into my favs for inspiration. TFS!
